Sustainability

Green hydrogen faces a water problem

Around nine liters of water are needed to produce one kilogram of green hydrogen, and as much as 12 to 19 liters for one kilogram of blue hydrogen.

What does sustainability mean in battery production?

Die zunehmende Nachfrage nach Batterien, insbesondere für Elektrofahrzeuge und erneuerbare Energiesysteme, hat zu einem steigenden Bedarf an kritischen Metallen wie Lithium, Kobalt, Nickel und Mangan geführt.

Elastocaloric Heating and Cooling

Elastokalorische Systeme stellen einen Fortschritt in der Wärme- und Kältetechnik dar. Anstelle von Kühlmitteln verwenden sie Formgedächtnismaterialien, die sich durch mechanische Verformung erwärmen oder abkühlen.

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.

Eco-designing a sustainable future for healthcare
