Munich, September 22, 2020: Rapid rise in battery innovation playing key role in clean energy transition – Shepard Fox supports European Patent Office and International Energy Agency in global promotion of study
Improving the capacity to store electricity is playing a key role in the transition to clean energy technologies. Between 2005 and 2018, patenting activity in batteries and other electricity storage technologies grew at an average annual rate of 14% worldwide, four times faster than the average of all technology fields, according to a joint study published today by the European Patent Office (EPO) and the International Energy Agency (IEA). The report, Innovation in batteries and electricity storage – a global analysis based on patent data, also shows that batteries account for nearly 90% of all patenting activity in the area of electricity storage. – Shepard Fox is supporting the European Patent Office in promoting the key findings of the study via a global media campaign across Europe, Japan, South Korea, China and the United States, including the creation and distribution of localized press releases, reaching out to tier-1 general and business media, and arranging media interviews for online, print, radio and TV coverage with the authors of the study.
