ZSW reports on EV trend gathering momentum
In 2023, there were 14.8 million new electric vehicles registered globally, comprising battery electric vehicles, plug-in hybrids, and vehicles with range extenders.
ZSW and First Solar thin film photovoltaics research partnership
Stuttgart-based Zentrum für Sonnenenergie- und Wasserstoff-Forschung Baden-Württemberg (ZSW) and First Solar has announced a strategic research partnership focused on advancing thin film photovoltaics (PV).
How rechargeable batteries are going green
ZSW embarks on joint project to develop rechargeable zinc-manganese dioxide batteries.
New electric car registrations worldwide total 10.8 million
Around 830,000 new electric vehicles were registered in Germany last year. This means that there are now almost 1.9 million electric cars on German roads – this is 59% more than in the previous year.
Big data drives forward the energy transition
In order to get a more detailed picture of energy flows in the electrical grid, scientists from the Centre for Solar Energy and Hydrogen Research in Baden-Württemberg (ZSW) are looking to use improved, self-learning algorithms. A major research project was launched to this end in February 2017. These algorithms will serve to more accurately forecast consumers' needs and the amount of electricity generated from renewables. Satellite data will...
Thin-film PV systems receive significant Chinese investment
The commercial production of thin-film photovoltaic systems with semiconductors made of Copper, Indium, Gallium and Selenium (CIGS) is on the verge of a breakthrough.
