Overview Task 58 for Material and Component Development for Compact Thermal Storage Systems

The figur shows the overview and contents of the IEA SHC Task 58 for material and component development for compact heat storage. The task is divided into 4 subtasks dealing with the definition of boundary conditions, development of TCM and PCM materials, test methods and component design of compact heat storage systems.

Passys Test Cell

Measurement of the luminance of a solar facade in the Passys test cell of the UIBK

life cycle cost

Lines showing the smallest difference in life-cycle costs per non-renewable primary energy unit and HVAC configuration at office buildings in Stockholm (Sto), Stuttgart (Stu) and Rome. LCC includes investment, maintenance and operation over a 20-year period. HP stands for heat pump and DE for direct electric.

Solar district heating system with power-to-heat

District heating system with heat supply from central solar collectors, industrial waste heat, heating centre, heat pump, and with short-term and seasonal thermal storage. Source of the heat pump is the saisonal storage. Excess power from PV and wind turbines is used to operate the heat pump.

Solar heat in smart cities

List of the main advantages of solar heat: it is emission-free and 100% renewable, it increases the energy security, the price is affordable and remains stable for at least 20 years, it replaces imported fueld and provide new jobs.

Attractiveness of SDH markets

Diagram with 4 areas according to DH technology readiness (low/high) and SDH market (small/large). Low readiness and small market is the case of Russia and Ukraine; low readiness and large market is the case of China; high readiness and small market is the case of France, Italy, Netherlands, Serbia, Slovenia, Spain, Canada, Latvia; high readiness and high market is the case of Germany, Austria, Denmark, Sweden, which are technology leaders and role models.

Host of the Battery Safety Talk and founder of Green Testing Lab Max Hofer welcomes the participants

As part of the Battery Safety Talk, well-known speakers delivered seven presentations from different perspectives on the topic of battery safety. Aim of the event was to network experts in order to share knowledge and thus increase safety in this area.

Expert audience from all over Austria at the Battery Safety Talk 2024

Around 80 experts from research, development, industry and authorities were able to exchange ideas on the topic of battery safety at the Battery Safety Talk in May 2024. The organizer was the Green Testing Lab in Hartberg, which created the opportunity to get to know different perspectives and to enter discussions with experts from different areas.

Experts from all over Austria attended the national Task 49 workshop “Electromobility and Fire Protection”

During the "Electromobility and Fire Protection" workshops, renowned speakers provided valuable input from various perspectives, which was then explored in greater depth through subsequent expert discussions. The event aimed to connect professionals and interested parties to share knowledge and thereby improve safety in this area.

TU Vienna-Nanjing Tribology Symposium December 2024

Presentation during the 3rd TU Vienna-Nanjing Tribology Symposium.

Cross-sectional image of a laser-structured and coated steel surface

The image shows an FIB cross-section of a steel surface that has been structured using laser interference and then coated with a 2D material, in this case MXene as transition metal carbide Ti3C2. The individual MXene flakes deposited in the valleys of the laser structures are clearly recognisable.

Areas of application for highly mobile hydrogen refuelling

Areas of application for highly mobile, construction site-compatible hydrogen refuelling at locations with no or insufficient refuelling and charging infrastructure.

Design example for a highly mobile hydrogen refuelling station

Functionality of highly mobile hydrogen refuelling using the example of the MAX Mobile Refueler from Maximator: (1) The refuelling vehicle is refuelled at the public 700 bar truck filling station. (2) The already compressed hydrogen is brought to the machine by the transport vehicle. (3) Hydrogen is refuelled into the machine in a few minutes using a displacement principle with low energy input, whereby the highly mobile filling device is driven by the machine to be refuelled.
