Flying is the most damaging mode of transportation for our climate. At least, up until now. But work is already underway to investigate technical alternatives to conventional aircraft. For example, airships with highly efficient solar cells and extremely light batteries on board. Prof. Dr. Christoph...

An interview with materials scientist Pablo Jiménez Calvo Green hydrogen could play a key role in the energy transition. Electrocatalytic splitting of water into hydrogen and oxygen requires huge amounts of electricity, which means the efficiency of this method for the energy transition is low compared to that of fossil fuels. Materials scientist Dr. Pablo Jiménez Calvo who is a Marie Sklodowska Curie Postdoctorate Fellowship holder at the Department of Materials Science at FAU, is conducting research into an alternative method known as photocatalysis. We spoke to him about the advantages of this technology and the hurdles which still have to be overcome.

To jointly commit to the further development of fossil-free, future-proof drives and to create synergies between science and industry – that is the goal of the Future Driveline Campus, which officially opened today. The Friedrich-Alexander University of Erlangen-Nuremberg (FAU), the Technical Univer...

During the summer semester, #FAUinsights will be looking at hydrogen as a major topic for the future. During the lecture series held by FAU and EnCN, experts discuss what the future holds. The answer to this question and many others will be provided during eleven informative and fascinating presenta...
