Technology Readiness Level, TRL, of various mobile applications of fuel cell systems.

In the aerospace sector, industrial trucks, cars and buses, TRLs of between 7.5 and 9 can be achieved. Light commercial vehicles, two-wheelers and trains achieve a TRL between 6.5 and 7, and aviation and shipping a TRL of 5.5.

Comparison of component manufacturing costs for fuel cells currently and in the future

The cost analysis is based on sales of 100,000 Fuel Cell systems per year. With current technologies, up to $73/kW can be achieved, with future technologies up to $60/kW in 2030. The greatest reduction potential of minus 33% is in the Fuel Cell stack.

Comparison of battery-electric/hydrogen-based propulsion for heavy-duty commercial vehicles.

The reduced loading capacity of BEVs due to the high battery weight leads to a doubling of traffic for the same load to be transported. This results in higher energy consumption overall, despite the higher efficiency of the BEV single vehicle.

Analysis comparing different drive options and the break-even point of TCO costs.

The general trend shows that FC propulsion is competitive with FCEV and BEV in terms of TCO costs in all vehicle categories from 2030. From 2040, similar TCO costs are expected for both FCEV and BEV in all vehicle categories.

IEA-TCP Graph: Visualization of all nodes and edges in the IEA-TCP data model

Size of the nodes corresponds to the number of connections, color to the type of node (see legend).

Participation of countries in IEA Technology Collaboration Programmes and Related Research Topics

Absolute (upper chart) and relative (lower chart) number of TCP-activities that countries are participating in. The color code shows how the assigned activities are related to the IEA-Topics and how the countries set their priorities with regard to the research topics (based on the IEA RD&D taxonomy).

Combination of Methods used by TCP-Activities

A set of methods was developed to categorize the kind of project work that is done in the activities. The figure shows which methods are applied how often in total (node size), and which methods were frequently applied together (edge width) by activities. The color corresponds to the different method cate-gories described in chapter.

TCM Storage System Prototype in Container for integration in a single familiy house

The picture is showing a TCM storage system with 3 moduels in combination with a heat pump system and 2 m³ buffer storage installed in a container as complete storage system. The container is shipped to a single familiy housein Warsaw and installed next to the house to store surplus of solar thermal energy from summer and provide space heating in winter

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.

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.
