This is the result of a Fraunhofer IWES study commisioned by the Offshore Wind Energy Foundation. The IWES research team around Dr. Kurt Rohrig has analysed…
TUM CREATE presents an electric taxi for use in tropical megacities at the 43rd Tokyo Motor Show. “EVA” showcases a new super-fast charging system recharging…
Experts from Siemens have developed a wireless sensor system that measures the mechanical loads to which a rail vehicle is subjected during operation.As…
This minimizes losses during power transmission and is one of the key technologies required to make better use of renewable sources of energy for the power…
Researchers at the U.S. Department of Energy’s Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory (Berkeley Lab) have demonstrated in the laboratory a lithium-sulfur…
Global outreach effort by electricity giants fosters bottom-up approach to strong Public-Private Partnerships; 'Golden Rules' draw on lessons worldwideThe…
Batteries that power electric cars have problems. They take a long time to charge. The charge doesn’t hold long enough to drive long distances. They don’t…
There is a trade-off in harvesting this light, so that solar cells are efficient in the infrared but waste much of the energy available from the more energetic…
Siemens Metals Technologies has developed a system for recovering heat from the hot off-gases of electric arc furnaces. The thermal energy that was previously…
The metasurface, thousands of V-shaped nanoantennas formed into an ultrathin gold foil, could make possible “planar photonics” devices and optical switches…
Located thousands of meters under water, the factories must operate reliably for several decades. However, there is still no empirical data about the high…
In the RWE Wind Heating project, the two companies have worked together with tekmar Regelsysteme GmbH to equip the storage heating systems in two neighborhoods…
The “EcoTram” research project is intended to demonstrate how this figure can be reduced. For this purpose, in the first stage of the project in the climatic…
Quite by accident, Washington State University researchers have achieved a 400-fold increase in the electrical conductivity of a crystal simply by exposing it…
The aim is to create a system in which electric vehicles use and temporarily store energy. The charging station serves as an active node that communicates with…
