ENERGY STORAGE FOR NOTEBOOKS, MULTIMEDIA, CELL PHONES, MEDICAL EQUIPMENT AND SOLAR ENERGY

Modern lithium-ion batteries have revolutionized energy storage and have been used for many years in cell phones and notebooks. However, today's energy storage units are too weak to allow the full potential of these devices to be exploited. This is the point of the research activities of VARTA Micro Innovation GmbH.

Solar energy systems are already producing energy that varies significantly, depending on the incident sunlight. However, it precisely at times when production is difficult (dark, cold conditions) that energy is actually required.

Efficient energy storage is thus a key to the further expansion of environmentally friendly solar technology. That's what makes application-oriented research indispensable.
