X-ray imaging of energy storage devices

The switch to renewable energies such as solar and wind energy plays an essential role in the energy transition. By expanding these environmentally friendly energy sources and increasing energy efficiency, the harmful consequences of climate change can be reduced and a more sustainable energy future created.

 

»By creating new insights, we support the battery industry in mastering the challenges of energy transition - from product development to recycling.«

 

However, there are also challenges to overcome when using these energy sources: Wind and solar energy in particular are subject to the effects of the weather. Clouds, fog, calm and darkness can cause unforeseen fluctuations in energy production.

 

Battery storage systems have the ability to store surplus energy during periods of high production and release it when demand increases. This improves the stability of the electricity grid as fluctuations in energy supply can be balanced out.
