Three strategies to boost green electricity in Switzerland
Three strategies to boost green electricity in Switzerland Switzerland''s ambitious green electricity targets are realistic. A study by the SWEET EDGE consortium shows that three distinct strategies would make it possible to cover electricity needs and lead to the employment of several thousands of people in the sector of new renewable …
South Korea has historically been dependent on cheap fossil fuel imports to meet its energy needs, with solar energy making up only 6.5% of its energy mix. In an effort to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and enhance energy security, the South Korean government set a target to generate 20% of its energy from renewable sources by 2030.
The energy world is changing: with Energy Strategy 2050, Switzerland is addressing the new challenges. Publications SFOE reports and publications, research reports, etc.

Sustainability Series: Energy Storage Systems Using Lithium-Ion Technologies
Energy storage systems (ESS) using lithium-ion technologies enable on-site storage of electrical power for future sale or consumption and reduce or eliminate the need for fossil fuels. Battery ESS using lithium-ion technologies such as lithium-iron phosphate (LFP) and nickel manganese cobalt (NMC) represent the majority of systems being installed today.
In our applied research, we work closely with international industrial groups and a network of leading research laboratories, including the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology in Zurich (ETHZ). These studies aim not only to store the CO 2 near production sites but also to use the fluid to create a closed-loop heat exchanger for the purposes of renewable heat and …
