Last night, Dutch broadcaster HUMAN aired an episode of the program "Ketens" (Chains) focusing on e-bikes, often touted as an environmentally friendly mode of transportation. The show delved into the darker side of e-bike production, specifically examining the supply chain of their batteries and the inhumane extraction of nickel. One of the guests on the program was Prof. Dr. Moniek Tromp🟥, who explained the workings of batteries. She emphasizes the importance of developing a sustainable Dutch-made battery🔋. Interestingly, Moniek is also one of the speakers at our upcoming Energizing Day on November 19th. She will be joining other internationally renowned speakers to make this day truly special.
