The Fraunhofer Institute for Ceramic Technologies and Systems IKTS conducts applied research on high-performance ceramics. The institute‘s three sites in Dresden and Hermsdorf (Thuringia), Germany, collectively represent Europe‘s largest R&D institute dedicated to the study of ceramics.
IKTS intensifies cooperation with India – MoU signed for joint venture in energy storage
IKTS Institute Director Prof. Dr. Alexander Michaelis and two Indian technology companies signed a "Memorandum of Understanding" (MoU) during a delegation trip of the Thuringian Ministry of Economics, Science and the Digital Society to India.
Inauguration of the Fraunhofer Project Center for Energy Storage and Systems ZESS in Braunschweig
The purpose of the new project center is to develop existing energy storage systems, both mobile and stationary, to the level of industrial maturity, and to demonstrate new solutions at a level of technological maturity of four to six.
Working together for the industrialization of bipolar batteries with Lithium-ion technology
Better batteries for a greater range of electric vehicles – this is the goal of the “EMBATT-goes-FAB” project sponsored by the Federal Ministry for Economic Affairs and Energy.
Energy Storage Europe is the leading international trade fair for the global energy storage industry. Here, Fraunhofer IKTS shows efficient, advanced battery concepts.
At the world's most important branch meeting in the area of composites, Fraunhofer IKTS presents new methods for the optimization and testing of CFRP and GFRP.
The Clean India Show is India's leading trade fair for the hygiene and cleaning industry. The show targets the following sectors: Hygiene/Epidemic Control, Cleaning, Sanitation and Waste. The event is part of the current "Clean India" initiative of Prime Minister Narendra Modi. The "Swachh Bharat" campaign aims to make India much cleaner in all areas by October 2, 2019, Mahatma Gandhi's 150th birthday. The campaign also particularly promotes sustainability.
The 3rd Dresden Battery Days will be dedicated to the exchange of knowledge between international electrochemical energy storage experts. Focus topic of the symposium is “All-solid-state batteries – already on the way from the laboratory to production?”
The symposium will focus on haptic solutions and medical applications as well as other technological developments related to piezoceramics and functional units to provide solutions for control and positioning tasks, measuring tasks, power supply, materials treatment, and ultrasound and vibration applications.
