Overview
New paths to a cost-effective energy supply
Our industry will run out of low-cost energy in the future. What can we do?
The ‘maker of the day after tomorrow’ of energy-efficient, sustainable production is addressing this question and has clear answers and visions. Professor Alexander Sauer from Fraunhofer IPA counters with concepts such as the ultra-efficient factory, with bio-intelligent value chains, but also with tools that are already available today, which not only make our energy systems CO2-neutral, but also cost-efficient, in order to be prepared for volatile and local energy generation.
