Smart Grid MR 2.0 could be used to explore these two playing modes, for instance, by requesting the students producing electricity to be in a different room from the ones consuming electricity, in a way that they do not see the actions of their pairs but only their consequences of their actions. It is clear that Smart Grid MR 2.0 can be played in a cooperative or non-cooperative way, and that its features can be evolved as a function of the pursued pedagogic objectives. These models will be supported on the ones developed by us in the ARTISTIC project. This will allow to perform computational simulations of the battery manufacturing process by interacting in real-time with responsive 3D virtual representations of the machines, and without needing any knowledge on computational aspects. This could pave the way to new approaches to support battery manufacturing digitalization. Furthermore, we plan to extend this digital twin to represent other manufacturing machines (in particular those of battery gigafactories) and less traditional electrode manufacturing processes, such as extrusion or other dry processes. Regarding the former, SIMUBAT 4.0 can constitute a very useful tool to train technicians before their arrival to work in battery gigafactories, to familiarize them with the characteristics of the machines (for instance, the spatial location of their commands, the notions of distances and sizes), the gestures to adopt upon manufacturing electrodes and cells, etc. Finally, we plan to make this environment usable by multiple VR users at the same time, these users being at different locations and represented as avatars. We believe that this concept paves the way to virtual collaborative spaces also for battery manufacturing research and beyond (Figure ), making the metaverse for energy storage sciences closer than ever before.
