Many companies have set themselves ambitious sustainability goals. But that won’t be enough if the partners in their supply chains don’t follow suit.

When it comes to energy production, the focus is more on being above ground than below. Instead of coal mines, the emphasis is on wind turbines. Not so at Quaise: The company wants to open up new dimensions for geothermal energy.

Researchers have been working on making sensible use of the environmentally harmful CO₂ for decades. Carbon dioxide can be an important raw material. Even sugar can be produced from it.

Engineer and circumnavigator Corentin de Chatelperron shows how to be self-sufficient with amazingly simple technology even in the remotest corner of the Earth.

Solar cells producing green electricity in total darkness? Sounds like a paradox but may become a reality someday. Scientists are working flat out on the anti-solar cell.

While airships keep appearing on the visionary horizon from time to time none of them has so far managed the leap into the real world of mobility. The H₂ Clipper is a new attempt.

Does shipping offshore wind power to onshore grids make sense? A Japanese start-up says yes it does.

Log-burning stoves radiate cozy warmth in winter, but the fine dust emitted by burning wood poses a health hazard and pollutes the environment. A new device provides relief.

Effective insulation, good indoor climate, simple production, plus carbon neutrality: new natural building materials using hemp or corn might revolutionize the construction industry.

Instead of burning thousands of tons of fuel the technology start-up SpinLaunch is planning to hurl rockets into orbit using centrifugal force. This is how the launcher centrifuge is said to work ...

A Lithuanian organic food producer has now unveiled the world’s first hybrid tractor powered by biomethane and electricity for professional use: the Auga M1.

Starting in 2025, Schaeffler will be buying 100,000 metric tons (110,000 short tons) of “green” steel per year from a Swedish startup. The steel will be produced with hydrogen.

Norwegian company Wind Catching Systems aims to revolutionize offshore power generation with a “wall” as tall as the Eiffel Tower with 126 small 1-MW turbines.

Schaeffler aims to operate in a climate-neutral manner by 2040 - not only in its own production facilities, but along the entire supply chain.

An e-car can only become truly carbon-neutral if it’s produced sustainably and operates with clean electricity.

Energy-efficient wing-in-ground vehicles as new interurban means of transportation are planned to zip across the sea on air cushions.

A modern world without steel is hardly conceivable – but steel without CO₂ emissions is. These are the technologies to achieve change.

Ecological retirement – what happens to old batteries of electric vehicles or decommissioned wind turbines and solar energy systems?

With renewable raw materials and new ideas, the construction industry is planning to level out its deep carbon footprint.

How do you fish something out of the ocean that you can’t see? By using clever “catching methods” for microplastics and nanoparticles.

Flying, but greener – that’s what the future of aviation has to look like.

With the final race in Berlin, the Audi Sport ABT Schaeffler team has said good-bye to Formula E.

Billions of plants for millions of jobs: The Great Green Wall across the continent is the world’s largest landscape restoration project.

Almost a fourth of the energy consumed is lost to friction. It’s time to change that – with new surface technologies.

In the wake of the unbridled growth of cities, we’re going to see an evolution of urban mobility. tomorrow digital talked to Harry Evers, managing director of the 2021 ITS World Congress

An innovation-driven world changes all of our lives. Here are five areas education and training should focus on to prepare people for the new digital knowledge society.

Be it in cars, trains or airplanes, in systems ranging from hybrid to fully electric, mobility of the future requires electric motors. But how does an electric motor actually work?

Whereas all previous plans revolved around storing the climate gas CO2 in underground layers of rock or just getting rid of it, it’s now supposed to be converted into a valuable raw material.

The massive plastic pollution of the oceans is one of the greatest challenges of our time. However, there are encouraging, ambitious projects and ideas.

Rail transportation had its heyday in many parts of the world up until the middle of the 20th century but was subsequently neglected. The return to the railroad confronts Brazil with major challenges.

“Next Exit: The Future” is the title which the renowned science journalist Ranga Yogeshwar selected for his new book. In an interview, Ranga Yogeshwar answers the most pressing questions.

Infinite energy, clean and for free – is that really just a pipe dream? Three ideas between science fiction and hard physics.
