Knowledge sharing, collaboration and opportunities for defence energy innovation
The NOMAD project is holding its national dissemination event in Spain, bringing together representatives from the defence sector, industry and project partners to exchange knowledge and explore opportunities for collaboration in the field of energy management and storage for military applications.
On 24 November in Seville, the programme will open with an inaugural session featuring representatives from INTA, ARPA and the Spanish Ministry of Defence.
The event will include a presentation on strategies and opportunities for collaboration in energy storage and management for military facilities, followed by an introduction to the NOMAD project by ARPA, the project coordinator.
A roundtable discussion will then bring together experts from the defence sector, industry and technology organisations to address the challenges and opportunities associated with transforming technological developments into practical energy solutions for defence applications.
The session will conclude with an open Q&A, providing participants with the opportunity to exchange views directly with the speakers and discuss potential areas for future cooperation.
About the NOMAD project
NOMAD aims to reduce energy dependence and improve energy security at bases, camps and other infrastructure both stand-alone and connected to the electricity grid.
To achieve this, the project develops, adapts and validates technologies for use in military environments. Its main objective is to strengthen the European defence industry in the field of energy storage by assessing technologies and systems and validating them in relevant environments.
NOMAD — Energy Anywhere
A project funded by the European Union.
