1st MOFTherm Meeting in Ljubljana
8 September 2026
We are looking forward to welcoming the MOFTherm project partners to Ljubljana for our first in-person meeting, taking place on 20–21 October 2026 at the National Institute of Chemistry.
Bringing the consortium together will be an important opportunity to share progress, exchange ideas, discuss emerging results, and strengthen collaboration across the project. The meeting will also provide space to align on upcoming research activities and define the next steps towards achieving the goals of MOFTherm.
MOFTherm project officially launched
27 May 2026
The MOFTherm consortium held its kick-off meeting on 27 May 2026 via Microsoft Teams. The meeting brought together project partners to review the project objectives, work-package structure, partner roles and first implementation steps.
The project will develop sustainable PCM@MOF@C composites for passive battery thermal management, combining bio-derived phase-change materials, non-toxic zirconium-based MOFs and recycled or recyclable carbon materials.
During the meeting, partners discussed initial material-selection strategies, prototype validation requirements, life-cycle and techno-economic assessment, data management and dissemination activities. The first experimental work will focus on material screening, composite preparation and early validation of the PCM@MOF@C concept.
