Energiespeicher gross

Sustainable energy storage systems could replace lithium-ion batteries

Large-scale storage systems can shift the availability of electricity from times of electricity surplus to times of electricity shortage and avoid curtailment, especially of wind farms.

New processes and technologies

The electrification of processes and technologies plays a crucial role in the transformation of the chemical industry toward a climate-neutral orientation. The German chemical industry will require huge amounts of additional electricity.

Geothermal energy: green district heating

Germany has set itself the goal of achieving climate neutrality in the heating sector by 2045. A large proportion of energy is used for heating, almost 70 percent of which is fossil fuels.

Sustainable power supply – Airborne wind energy

Before conventional wind turbines generate green electricity, they first release a lot of CO2. Cement and steel make up by far the largest portion of a wind power plant. Up to an incredible 80 tons of steel are used per wind turbine.

Does chemistry have to reinvent itself in the energy crisis?

As an energy-intensive sector, the chemical industry accounts for around 10.5 percent of German energy consumption. The proportion is even higher for natural gas and electricity, the industry's two most important energy sources.

Klimawandel KI

Renewable energies for heating and cooling

In future, municipal heating networks will have to play an even greater role in the supply of heat from renewable energies, as they can be used to tap into heat sources such as deep geothermal energy, industrial waste heat or ground-mounted solar thermal energy.
