TECHNOLOGY

Our new thermal storage for high-growth industrial applications such as batteries, supercapacitors or other heat sensitive industrial applications allows the realization of innovative passive thermal management systems for heating and cooling.

The technology utilises latent heat storage based on phase change material (PCM) infiltrated aluminium foam. It serves to buffer the peak thermal power generated by the application, enabling a more optimal thermal management and preventing overheating.

​

 

The result is the optimization of the overall life-cycle resource reduction of industrial applications in terms of lower operational costs, reducing waste of resources and energy. This enables the development of a more competitive product that creates new market opportunities.

Showcasing in the EU project “SELFIE”

Launched in 2018, we are using the collaborative innovation project SELFIE (Self-sustained and Smart Battery Thermal Management Solution for Battery Electric Vehicles) to drive forward the industrialization of our heat storage.

​

 

In this Horizon 2020 EU-project we are currently working with leading European automotive premium suppliers to integrate the storage into vehicles for the optimization of the battery thermal management during driving and fast charging.

​

Benefits​
​
  • Enabling fast-charging up to 3 times faster than today for a 30 kWh battery pack

​

  • Enable long(er)  distance trips of electric vehicles by optimized battery thermal management during driving and charging
