EPMA issues call for papers for its Advanced Energy Solutions seminar
The European Powder Metallurgy Association (EPMA) has issued a call for papers for its Powering the Future: Powder Metallurgy for Advanced Energy Solutions seminar, which will take place in Lyon, France, from June 2-3, 2026, in parallel with 3D Print Lyon.
The global energy sector is rapidly evolving, with a strong focus on clean, renewable energy production and the sustainable use and storage of energy resources. Powder Metallurgy plays a crucial role in enabling advanced energy systems, delivering complex, high-performance, and cost-efficient components for demanding environments.
3D Print Lyon partnership
Attendance at the seminars is free for non-exhibiting visitors, as part of the 3D Print Lyon collaboration. This collaboration allows professionals active or interested in Powder Metallurgy industries to explore the Additive Manufacturing exhibition, attend both the automotive and energy PM seminars during the same week, and network with a broader range of colleagues.
