New reactor concept for methanation

Synthetic energy carriers are carbon-neutral and make renewable energy transportable and storable in the long term. Synthetically produced methane is one of them. The problem: The production involves rather high energy losses; moreover, existing processes require the methane to be purified. To change this, Empa researchers have developed a new, optimized reactor concept for methanation. Read more about New reactor concept for methanation[…]

New possibilities to develop efficient and stable solar cells

Solar cells manufactured from materials known as “perovskites” are catching up with the efficiency of traditional silicon-based solar cells. At the same time, they have advantages of low cost and short energy payback time. However, such solar cells have problems with stability – something that researchers at Linköping University, together with international collaborators, have now Read more about New possibilities to develop efficient and stable solar cells[…]

A new circular business model for the production optimization

The research project CircuBAT aims to create a circular business model for the production, application and recycling of lithium-ion batteries used for mobility purposes. Seven Swiss research institutions and 24 companies are joining forces to look for ways to boost sustainability in all stages of a battery’s life cycle. The project is part of the Read more about A new circular business model for the production optimization[…]

New research for more green hydrogen

Hydrogen could be an important part of our future energy supply: It can be stored, transported and burned as needed. However, most of the hydrogen available today is a by-product of natural gas production – this has to change for climate protection reasons. The best strategy so far to produce environmentally friendly “green hydrogen” is Read more about New research for more green hydrogen[…]
