Megatrend: Resource efficiency

Evonik offers the world commercially viable ideas on how to utilize resources more efficiently—ranging from products to generate and store solar power and other renewable resources, through solutions for electric vehicles that enhance mobility, and high-performance plastics and lubricant systems with a long service life, which reduce raw material requirements, to catalysts and additives for the production of environment-friendly products and starting materials.

Renewable energies

Polyimide fibers from Evonik: hollow fibers for processing crude biogas. more

The energy source of the future

How an ultrathin membrane from Evonik ensures that lithium-ion storage devices deliver outstanding performance. more

In the spotlight

The latest generation of lamps is synonymous with energy-saving. Light-emitting diodes (LEDs) are already found in a wide variety of applications. more

The largest lithium ceramic battery in the world

In future, wind and sun energy should be efficiently storable, even on a large-scale. Evonik and its partners are therefore developing the world’s largest lithium ceramic battery. more

Thin, but warm

Nobody wants to spend a fortune on heating, particularly when most of the heat is wasted because of poor insulation. Insulating materials come in many forms. Polyurethane rigid foam panels have excellent insulation properties. more

Motoring without exhaust

The future belongs to clean and quiet road traffic, because vehicles have a novel, silent electric drive of unprecedented range. High-efficiency lithium-ion battery technology from Evonik should help realize this vision. more

Solar silicon and savings

Massive energy savings: Evonik produces silicon, which is in great demand as a raw material, by a new process that uses much less energy than conventional technologies. more
