Hydrogen is a widely discussed topic—in media, online, and at events. In Bremerhaven, Germany, it’s driving climate-neutral mobility. At the Grauwallring industrial estate, HY.City.Bremerhaven GmbH & Co. KG uses a wind turbine to produce hydrogen on-site via electrolysis.
The PLCnext Factory in Bad Pyrmont demonstrates that analyzing minimal process data with Phoenix Contact’s advanced technologies can yield significant savings.
Bad Pyrmont, a scenic town in Germany’s Weserbergland region, is home to Phoenix Contact’s PLCnext Factory—a cutting-edge automation facility. It tests and implements new technologies like the Industry 4.0-based Digital Factory and net-zero carbon concepts. The factory also produces the very technologies that will power future production systems.
With rising electricity consumption and the integration of diverse energy sources, battery storage systems are increasingly coming into focus. Consequently, residential, industrial, and utility-scale storage systems—defined by their battery storage capacity—are increasingly used. Industrial and utility storage systems, whether stationary or distributed, store valuable wind and solar energy.
E-mobility is crucial for a sustainable future in the All Electric Society. However,its acceptance depends on abundant charging points, low maintenance costs, and short charging times. Therefore, electrical connection technology is key to enhancing these aspects.
