Right now, lithium-ion batteries represent the state of the art in electric vehicles (EVs) as well as smartphones. But apart from their chemical composition, there are numerous differences between…
Batteries are increasingly becoming a central element of our everyday lifes.They are becoming more powerful, more durable and more widespread – and therefore also need to become increasingly secure.
Energy storage systems are becoming increasingly important, powerful and widespread. However, this also means that the demands on their safety and durability are growing.
Bernhard Gadermaier, a researcher at the TU Graz Institute for Chemistry and Technology of Materials, provides a chemical perspective on how batteries can be best protected.
With EUR 10m in federal funding, Graz University of Technology (TU Graz) is enhancing its hydrogen infrastructure. The new electrolysis test centre and expanded testing facilities are reinforcing…
In 2040, electricity production from solar installations will often significantly exceed demand, especially at midday. Robert Schürhuber from the Institute of Electrical Power Systems at TU Graz…
Batteries undercut their theoretical capacity in practice, sometimes significantly. In a lithium iron phosphate cathode, researchers at TU Graz have now been able to observe exactly where the capacity…
Methanol, ammonia, and hydrogen are waiting in the wings to replace problematic heavy fuel oil in ship propulsion systems. In this interview Nicole Wermuth and Andreas Wimmer explain the differences…
For a long time, large engines only knew one operating condition: full load. Nowadays, though, they are used much more flexibly and can effectively balance fluctuating electricity production, in…
