eFuels as the key to a sustainable energy future
Climate change, dwindling fossil resources and a growing demand for energy – innovative solutions are needed to tackle these problems. How can eFuels help replace fossil fuels and what role will they play in our energy future?
Storing and using renewable energy efficiently with eFuels
The use of renewable energy from the sun and wind poses a significant challenge: Their production depends on the weather and is rarely synchronized with the current energy demand. While energy surpluses often occur when there is strong sunshine or high wind speeds, there is a lack of sufficient energy when it is dark and there is no wind.
