New publication in the journal Sustainability

A new publication from Clean Circles researchers together with colleagues from TU Darmstadt and KIT, delves into the transformative effects of the Russian-Ukrainian war on the German discourse surrounding hydrogen.

Techno-economic parameters of alternative green energy carriers

The Institute for Technical Thermodynamics has an immediate vacancy for a student assistant. The task is to create a database on techno-economic parameters of alternative green energy carriers (iron, hydrogen, ammonia, aluminum, etc.) and to implement an automated evaluation in a programming environment.

Coloring poster about future energy cycles

Vortrag von Prof. Christian Hasse bei „acatech am Dienstag“

Welche Rolle können chemische Energiespeicher für die Energiewende spielen? Derzeit steht Wasserstoff als Energieträger der Zukunft im Fokus, relativ neu in der Diskussion hingegen ist Eisen als Energiespeicher. Dies war auch Thema eines Impulsvortrags von Christian Hasse bei der Veranstaltungsreihe „acatech am Dienstag“ am 28 November 2023. Experten diskutierten über chemische Speicheroptionen, deren technologische Reife- und Wirkungsgrade. Auch die Herausforderungen der Grundlagenforschung und Fragen des Transports waren Teil des Austauschs.

TV report from the program “alles wissen” about Clean Circles
