Researchers have been working on making sensible use of the environmentally harmful CO
2
for decades. Carbon dioxide can be an important raw material. Even sugar can be produced from it.
Setting a course for “simply ingenious”!
Engineer and circumnavigator Corentin de Chatelperron shows how to be self-sufficient with amazingly simple technology even in the remotest corner of the Earth.
Energy storage systems of the future
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.
On the road toward a biobased economy
Microorganisms as turbo recyclers, mussels as innovation models or artificial muscles as actuators: Driven by a pioneering spirit, biotechnology is gearing up for the battle against climate change.
Sunny yield in the dark
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.
Shipping electricity
Does shipping offshore wind power to onshore grids make sense? A Japanese start-up says yes it does.
From gray to green
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.
Wind meets wall
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.
Climate neutrality: Schaeffler sets the pace
Schaeffler aims to operate in a climate-neutral manner by 2040 - not only in its own production facilities, but along the entire supply chain.
All lights switched to green??
An e-car can only become truly carbon-neutral if it’s produced sustainably and operates with clean electricity.
Flying a kite
This high-speed boat is said to achieve a speed of 150 km/h (93 mph)or 80 knots. That would be a new world record.
How Bob becomes an eco-builder
With renewable raw materials and new ideas, the construction industry is planning to level out its deep carbon footprint.
Simply magnetic
How do you fish something out of the ocean that you can’t see? By using clever “catching methods” for microplastics and nanoparticles.
Clean energy galore
Some countries produce more sustainable energy than they need. New technologies help distribute surplus power efficiently.
Green is the color of hope
Billions of plants for millions of jobs: The Great Green Wall across the continent is the world’s largest landscape restoration project.
With the wind against the wind
Friction-optimized headwind vehicles drive into the wind faster than the wind blows against them.
Wind of Change
Only when the human, nature and technology triad is in perfect harmony will sailors stand a chance of finishing the Vendée Globe. Mental agility is a key skill in the world’s toughest non-stop regatta
With the power of the wind
Over the course of millennia, the wind has been working for humans. In the future, the wind will become a powerful ally in the battle against climate change – thanks to technological innovation.
Always follow the sun
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.
Brave new building world
Digital transformation is changing the world of construction and helps save time, costs and natural resources. Much of this is still a vision, but is an all-new world of construction in store for us?
Hydrogen the all-rounder
Use as a storage medium, as propulsion energy and as a carbon substitute in industrial applications: There are quite a few expectations pinned on hydrogen. Schaeffler’s hydrogen expert Dr. Stefan Goss
The fuel cell: an onboard power-plant
Electric powertrains don’t have to involve range issues: The fuel cell is a case in point. How does this technology work and why has it recently become a hot topic?
Fed up!
The massive plastic pollution of the oceans is one of the greatest challenges of our time. However, there are encouraging, ambitious projects and ideas.
Powered by the wind
In the 17th century, the Netherlands had the biggest merchant fleet in the world. The rise of the small nation was accelerated by the efficient utilization of a renewable source of energy: wind.
“We need to change”
“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.
Naturally efficient
In the animal kingdom, a great diversity of strategies for an energy-efficient way of life has developed in the course of evolution. “tomorrow” presents fauna’s efficiency kings.
Dream versus reality
Infinite energy, clean and for free – is that really just a pipe dream? Three ideas between science fiction and hard physics.
