As energy storage systems for electric vehicles, traction batteries are increasingly attracting attention. They’re a challenge and key technology for climate-friendly mobility. A look at the current state of development and at technological prospects

What is special about the “anti-solar cell?” What is the Great Green Wall in Africa? Sustainability is one of the most important megatrends of our time - test your knowledge.

Wouldn’t it be great if the summer heat could be recovered for heating in winter? Scientists worldwide are researching this. tomorrow presents two novel means of storage: sand and acid.

Electricity storage is a key component of climate gas reduction. What role can mechanical systems such as flywheels, gravity and compressed-air energy storage play in this context? An overview.

Some countries produce more sustainable energy than they need. New technologies help distribute surplus power efficiently.

Sun, wind and water can supply sufficient energy to cover the worldwide demand. An efficient global power grid is an important key of innovation to achieving this goal.

A large high-voltage battery like the one in the Audi e-tron stores up to 95 kWh of energy. Theoretically, this is enough for operating various appliances around the clock

In his thriller “Blackout,” Marc Elsberg describes the collapse of civilization within just a few days due to catastrophic failure of the power grids. How vulnerable are modern societies?

The development of humanity is inseparably tied to the amount of energy we’re able to generate and consume. A brief history of human energy consumption in five chapters.
