Group photo of the Battery Safety Talk with speaker and organizer

On May 15, 2024, around 80 experts from the mobility industry gathered at the Green Testing Lab in the Hartberg Eco Park to discuss the latest developments and challenges about battery safety in e-mobility. In a total of seven lectures, well-known speakers provided valuable input from different perspectives, which was deepened in following discussions with the audience.

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.

Combined building and plant simulation in real time

In a dynamic building simulation, the zones (rooms) are in contact with their surroundings and with the adjacent building components, the people, equipment and objects located in them. In the combined building and plant simulation, the dynamic interaction between building, plant and control is also taken into account. A building and plant simulation, adapted in real time to the actual weather conditions and current measurement data from the building, can help to optimize the control of the building services and thus reduce energy costs and increase user comfort.

Two Austrian demonstration building digital twin

In recent years, AEE INTEC has completed two projects for the development and initial implementation of a digital twin on real buildings in Austria. This digital twin is a detailed simulation model using IDA ICE software, which is compared in real time with measurement data from a real building. This creates a model that represents the real condition of the building and its building services at any given time. This model can then be used for automated fault detection or to optimize control systems. The aim is to reduce energy consumption and improve user comfort.

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.

Icing on structures on the nacelle of a wind turbine

Webcam image of superstructures on the nacelle of a wind turbine with recognizable icing, which corresponds to the structure and consistency of clear ice directly on the structures and changes to hard rime as it progresses. The turbine is located at a test site of the Nergica center of applied research in eastern Canada. The webcam image is part of a dataset in the “Task 54 Icing Event Database”.

Modeled performance envelopes of rotor blade heating systems

Modeled performance envelopes as curves depending on wind speed and ambient temperature for different values of liquid water content (LWC) and surface temperature of the rotor blade. The curves were calculated with the “Task 54 Performance Envelope Model”.
