  1. e-fuels: Decarbonizing Hard-to-abate Sectors

Electrofuels (e-fuels) are synthetic liquid fuels produced using renewable electricity and captured carbon dioxide. From e-methanol to e-kerosene, they offer a near-term solution to decarbonize aviation, shipping, and long-haul transport.

Innovation Highlight: e-fuels are enabling fossil-fuel substitution without overhauling existing internal combustion infrastructure.

How is your organization evaluating the use of e-fuels to meet near-term emissions goals in transport and logistics?

  1. Process Heat Electrification: Greening Industrial Thermal Systems

Industrial heating accounts for more than half of global heat energy consumption — and nearly 30% of global greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. Electrifying process heat using technologies like electric arc heaters, radio frequency (RF) systems, and industrial heat pumps is a critical lever for decarbonization.

Strategic Impact: Direct electrification provides efficiency and emissions benefits without compromising performance in high-temperature applications.

Are your industrial assets equipped to transition from fossil-based to electrified heat generation?

  1. Ferro Phosphate Batteries: Safer, Sustainable Storage

Ferro phosphate batteries (FPBs) offer thermal stability, wide operating temperature ranges, and reduced reliance on critical materials like cobalt and nickel.

Sustainability Advantage: FPBs support safer, lower-cost energy storage systems with fewer environmental and supply chain risks.

Are you incorporating cobalt-free battery architectures in your energy transition roadmap?

  1. Hydrogen Transport Mediums: Solving the Storage Bottleneck

Ammonia, liquid organic hydrogen carriers (LOHCs), and metal hydrides are emerging as leading hydrogen transport mediums. They enable long-distance storage and safe handling — addressing one of hydrogen’s biggest commercialization hurdles.

Use Case: Transport mediums bridge the gap between production-rich and demand-heavy regions.

How are you integrating hydrogen logistics into your clean energy value chain?

  1. Sodium-ion Batteries: Cost-effective, Scalable Energy Storage

Sodium-ion batteries (SIBs) deliver safer operation, easier raw material access, and lower costs compared to lithium (Li)-ion — making them ideal for large-scale stationary storage.

Advantage: Can be manufactured with minor tweaks to existing Li-ion infrastructure.
