#technologyneutral approach is needed to meet the climate target and reduce #GHG in the #mobilitysector. Time⏱️ is running and we need to take into account #Resources #Availability #Affordability and need all #Innovative technologies like #BEV #PHEV #HEV #EFuels #HVO #H2ICE to promote new technologies and get support for #CO2reduction by existing fleet and infrastructure . Over the last years German Association FVV had been carried out very deep and scientific 💡 studies . https://lnkd.in/eQ8Hc5pb in German and English Language . Still very worthwhile reading and reviewing 👍 "Concentrating on a single technology will result in a lack of resources, even in a circular economy. The FVV study consciously works with what are known as ›100 per cent scenarios‹, as these enable an excellent comparison of the environmental impact of individual technologies throughout the entire energy chain and the vehicle life cycle, while also allowing bottlenecks to be determined. Comparing the demand for critical raw materials with the available reserves and resources shows that – even assuming a high recycling rate – certain raw materials will become very scarce if the rest of the world follows the European model and uses the same technologies. The raw materials in question depend on the selected combination of energy carrier and powertrain. For example, if the selected technology is battery electric vehicles using the currently dominant battery technology (lithium-ion batteries with nickelmanganese-cobalt cathodes), cobalt and lithium availability will be the limiting factor for the ramp-up speed, and this will have a significant impact on the cost of the batteries. Moving to solid-state batteries with a pure lithium anode will significantly exacerbate the scarcity of resources in the lithium supply chain. For fuel cell powertrains, the availability of platinum is a highly limiting factor. In a scenario in which the entire world transitions to 100 per cent fuel cell use, all known resources will not be sufficient, let alone those that can be tapped in an economically viable manner. No such bottlenecks are currently known when it comes to the use of hydrogen or synthetic fuels in combustion engines" https://lnkd.in/eQ8Hc5pb

Last night, I witnessed the future benchmark in travel. Picture this: charging your EV up to 400 km range in just about 15 minutes—quicker than your coffee break! EnBW's NextLevel Charging Park in Chemnitz isn't just about rapid charging. It combines sustainability with convenience, boasting a CO2-saving timber roof and high-efficiency solar panels. While the kids enjoy the eco-friendly playground, adults can relax at the cafe. And with EnBW now offering more than 4.500 hypercharging spots in Germany and more than 600k charging spots in Europe (via the EnBW Mobility+ App), road trips with the family are going to be a lot more enjoyable! Charging stations like this are prepared to deliver power at groundbreaking speeds. Although compatibility with Superchargers is still a hurdle for some electric vehicles, we've reached a stage where the infrastructure itself is ready and waiting; it's the vehicles themselves that need to catch up. But it's good to see that many manufacturers are making concerted efforts to bridge the gap between vehicle capability and charging infrastructure potential ( Some EV's now on the horizon are even said to have an 80-kilowatt-hour battery and a 600 km range that could theoretically charge in about 8 minutes!) With the EU's ambitious targets for EV infrastructure, mandating fast-charging stations every 60 kilometres on major highways by 2025 and aiming for 3 million public charging points by 2030, the stage is set for a significant transformation in how we approach electric mobility. How does the EV charging infrastructure influence your choice of vehicles? EnBW Energie Baden-Württemberg AG #Sustainability #EMobility #Innovation #EnBW

Congrats to Wayve for raising 1 BN dollars. It shows that autonomous driving is still on track and people believe in the technology. Wayve.ai develops their own software stack based on an E2E AI approach. This means the whole Software Stack is AI based. Unique in this world as most companies use AI only for Perception. More you can find here: https://lnkd.in/eq7NzMR4 It is very exciting, economical and promising for the future. There are risks though, which can be solved. Technologies like this are unique and create big challenges for engineers in Safety, Verification and Validation. I am personally happy to see that there is movement in Autonomy and people do not stop believing in safe and efficient mobility! https://lnkd.in/e7f9jg9p

This is awesome! EVs and especially BEVs are such an important puzzle piece in achieving transport sector #decarbonization! Beyond creating the required charging infrastructure (#EVCI) that enables wide-spread uptake of these great cars, however, it is also important to create #supplychains for all these battery materials (cobalt, nickel, graphite, etc.) that don't put even more strain on our biosphere! #supplychaindecarbonization

This presentation by Pip Klöckner is a great overview of current AI trends worth watching (slides/presentation in German!). It is very dense (153 slides in 40min) but I love this format – a very quick look into many peepholes and an invite to go deeper into a lot of AI related rabbit holes. Density over storytelling! 💰 Accenture makes more profit with AI than all AI startups combined. It has enabled more than 600k employees as companies want to “do something with AI” but need support. 📞 Klarna claims that AI allowed them to save 700 jobs in customer support. Zoom claims 90% of user requests are handled via AI and 400k h of human call center work was saved due to that. 🍞 LLMs will be commoditized. Making money with merely providing a good LLM will not work just as with other IT infrastructure in the past. Open source teams are capable to create good, competetive models, e.g. Mistral or Meta’s Llama 3 📈 We will see an inflation of AI generated content – to which AI generated content will react. Will Social networks be places where humans interact or machines? 🍼 AI models thirsty for more data. Yet, it is not too clear where that data will come from. The public internet is too limited and has been used to train models already. OpenAI transcribed YouTube videos into text to have more data for their model to learn from. Google pays reddit to exclusively use their data. 👨‍👩‍👧‍👧 The “Ai incest problem”: If AI will use more and more AI generated content in the web to learn models might collapse and deliver bad results. 💰 Whoever still has data that has not yet been used to teach models sits on a gold mine. For example, Google digitized 25m books over the last 20 years and can use these to train their AI. For comparison, GPT 3.5 has been fed only 5k books. 📦 Every country or culture will need its own, sovereign AI model due to difference in language, culture and rules. 🛠 Models will get smaller in a sense of less energy intensive to use. Furthermore, there will be compound models directing your request to the best and/or most cost/energy efficient AI to address it. 💀 OpenAI might kill (Google) search. And most AI tool related turnover will go to US companies – who will pay little tax in the EU. 🤓 AI tools will observe the way people work on their laptop, learn from it and might substitute their work in the future. ⚡ The energy and water hunger of AI is increasing fast. Crypto and AI will use 10% of global energy consumption in the next few years. The energy consumption of data centers of Google, Microstoft and Meta combined is already higher than that of BASF or Switzerland. Lack of electricity as key inhibitor for AI progress. 🏨 MedGemini reached 91% accuracy for answering medical question – more than experienced human doctors (87%). And the AI has been perceived as more empathetic. The potential for mental health is obvious! Slides:

Different German portals conducted polls this weekend about the 2035 #electricvehicles regulation in the EU. The result is always the same: people want to get rid of fossil cars ⚡⚡⚡ Thank you CDU Deutschlands and Friedrich Merz for starting this initiative! The results from WirtschaftsWoche and t-online show exactly the same picture. Fun fact: Today, the #EU doesn't have a ban on #combustion #engine #vehicles starting from 2035. We only have a #zeroemission regulation from 2035 onwards, which makes #eFuels and #Hydrogen mandatory instead of petrol and diesel. As they are too expensive lobbying is taking place to revise this plan. The results are now clear, and now all #German parties must fight for the same goal in the #European parliament: No combustion engines after 2035! #charging #charger #bev #elektroauto #wallbox #elektromobilität #emobility #aufladen #laden #wahlen #europawahl #emsp Sozialdemokratische Partei Deutschlands (SPD) FDP Freie Demokraten BÜNDNIS 90/DIE GRÜNEN

Jorgo mentions the need for a Digital Product Passport (DPP) to enable the export of Ukrainian renewable gases and commodities. The challenge of certification and creating a user-friendly yet trusted solution with a focus on sustainability data within these energy and industrial products has been on our radar since early 2021. We experimented with blockchain technology to create a solution, even building a proof of concept (PoC) on the EnergyWeb SDK with 482.solutions. This insightful experiment demonstrated the possibilities that #blockchain can offer in solving #traceability and trust-related challenges. That was back in 2021. Today, many great blockchain-based solutions are on the market and ready for use. It's encouraging to see some of them addressing the sustainable energy value chain. I hope that in the future, such certificates, issued via blockchain technologies, will be recognized by energy market regulators. #RenewableEnergy #greenhydrogen

It’s always nice to be back at Technische Universität München - and hard to believe it’s already close to seven years since I started my own journey at the university. Thanks to Anna Efa, Eckehard Steinbach and the TUM Venture Labs team for the invitation and the chance to share insights into all things autonomous driving, our approach at driveblocks, the technology behind it as well as the business models and strategies around it. The key messages of the talk were: 💡While autonomous driving leverages a lot of artificial intelligence, safety is paramount and can’t be compromised. This changes a lot of the development dynamic compared to „standard“ AI. 💡 Data collection and management is a much bigger part of the efforts required - this has to be considered from a technical as well as from a business model point of view. 💡 We focus on early commercial deployments of the technology in industrial and commercial vehicle applications. This helps in growing the technology as well as the business and working with the certification bodies on the regulation aspects. And now back to building 🚀 #mapless #autonomousdriving #autonomoustrucks

50% people #BUY #THE #SAME 🚘 👁️ It is amazing to see that even the least loyal car customers buy the same #brand on average at least 50% of times. Branding is thus super #powerful in #automotive. 🔋 Also interesting to see is that most of the #German, hi-quality producers are among the least loyal customer base brands. EV cars have a bit of unfair advantage, because if you switch to electric cars mentally, there is less competing brands for EV-repurchase. But still impressive customer #retention figures from those.

🌟 I am honoured to announce that I have been invited to speak at the INDUSTRY.forward, organised by publish-industry Verlag GmbH. In these times of rising uncertainty and rapid advancements in artificial intelligence, it is more crucial than ever to place people at the heart of our business strategies, especially when it comes to innovation. 🚀 In the Industrial Tech sector, our focus often lies heavily on the task at hand, machinery, and technology. However, we must not overlook the wellbeing of our people and their interaction with technology. By prioritising our teams and fostering a human-centric approach, we can drive meaningful and sustainable operations & innovation. 💡 I am excited to share the PFAFF Werkzeug- und Formenbau approach to this challenge and explore how we can collectively grow, adapt, and innovate. Together, we can transform challenges into opportunities and set new standards for the future. 🌍 A heartfelt thank you to Sabrina Koch and Sylvia König for this incredible opportunity! ✨ Join us at the Industry Forward Summit to dive into these themes and more. Let's shape the future of manufacturing together, embracing a mindset of continuous growth and inspiring each other to reach new heights! #IndustryForward #Innovation #Manufacturing #ArtificialIntelligence #PeopleFirst #GrowthMindset #FutureFocused
