Fear is spreading: Volkswagen, Varta, Altech Advanced Materials

  • Electromobility
  • Batteries
  • Innovations

Consulting firms like Roland Berger see the automotive industry undergoing a "triple transformation." No wonder large automotive groups are doing everything possible to become fit for the future. In addition to model electrification, digitization and greater sustainability are also playing a role in the battle for tomorrow's customers. Over the next three minutes, we explain what role technical innovations play in this.

The great race to catch up: Varta, Altech Advanced Materials, BASF - Who will build the best battery?

  • Batteries
  • Electromobility
  • renewableenergies

The first major city in Germany is getting serious. From February 2023, diesel-powered vehicles in the Euro 4 emissions class will no longer be allowed to be used within the inner ring in Munich. This is a big step, as around 140,000 motorists will be affected by this exclusion. In the future, these drivers will have to park their vehicles at the city limits in order to use public transportation to get to the city center. This will have far-reaching consequences for businesses and restaurants, as on-site purchases of a larger nature will become extremely inconvenient for the owners of these vehicles. Politicians are betting everything on e-mobility, but what about developing powerful and environmentally friendly batteries?

Is electric refueling getting more and more expensive? There are solutions! Mercedes-Benz, Altech Advanced Materials, Varta

  • Electromobility
  • Technology

Diesel is unlikely to cost less than EUR 2 per litre anytime soon. But at least modern combustion engines are considered efficient and flexible. Current media reports about electricity costs at charging stations for e-cars show a different picture. Some providers are shamelessly exploiting the shortage of charging stations and rising energy prices. Prices of EUR 0.70 per kilowatt hour are not uncommon at public charging stations. Those who fill up a lot in public areas often pay more for electromobility than for driving a combustion engine. But what does this mean for the trend toward electric driving?

BYD, Altech Advanced Materials, NIO - Battle for the battery of the future

  • Battery
  • Electromobility
  • Technology

Electromobility is considered a key technology in the transformation of the transport sector. In 2021 alone, the number of new registrations, as well as the market share of battery-powered vehicles, more than doubled. In addition to the charging infrastructure, efficiency plays a decisive role in the spread of e-cars. BYD is currently the leader with its Blade battery. However, a newcomer entered the market in recent months that could shake up the battery market with a novel technology.

Altech Advanced Materials, Tesla, BYD - German engineering before Germany as a business location

  • Batteries
  • Electromobility
  • Technology

Germany is the land of engineers, and German engineering is known worldwide for its outstanding quality. Altech Advanced Materials, for example, has launched a joint venture with the Fraunhofer Institute IKTS to commercialize even more powerful batteries than before. CERENERGY® batteries can be used for renewable energy storage as well as for industrial and private household applications. They are resource efficient and provide a reliable energy supply. German e-car enthusiasts can also look forward to the launch of three BYD models in Germany. And competitor Tesla is moving from Germany back to the US - President Biden has created a government lure...

BYD, Altech Advanced Materials, Varta - Breakthrough in the battery market

  • Battery
  • Lithium

Electromobility is considered a key technology in the transformation of the transport sector. In 2021 alone, the number of new registrations and the market share of battery-powered vehicles more than doubled. In addition to the charging infrastructure, efficiency plays a decisive role in the expansion of e-cars. Another obstacle to rapid growth is likely to be the shortage of lithium, an essential raw material for the production of lithium-ion batteries, due to the high demand. A German company is about to start a revolution with new innovative technology. The main component of the new battery is regular table salt, which is available in extremely large quantities and is produced in highly diversified regions.

The Tesla hunters: BYD, VW, Altech Advanced Materials, Varta - Which share is ahead?

  • Electromobility
  • Batteries
  • Technology

Alongside autonomous driving and new car-sharing concepts, electromobility represents the mobility of the future. With the electrification of the drive and the storage of the energy required for this in powerful batteries, combustion engines are now to disappear from our roads by 2035 - this is the almost unanimous political view. The aim is to reduce hazardous emissions to health and, simultaneously, to cut emissions of climate-damaging carbon dioxide. This is accompanied by a fundamental change in the automotive and supplier industry: In terms of value, the battery will be by far the largest cost factor in the automobile in the future. What is the current status?

BYD, Altech Advanced Materials, Varta - Is hydrogen displacing e-mobility?

  • Electromobility
  • Technology
  • Batteries

Chancellor Scholz was in Canada with Economics Minister Habeck to secure gas and hydrogen for the future. According to CEO Oliver Zipse, BMW is looking into series production of hydrogen cars. These are alarm signals for the producers of batteries for electric vehicles. Until recently, the electric drive was the preferred option in the passenger car market. The disadvantages are the long charging times, the low range and safety aspects. The hydrogen drive can score points, especially in terms of charging times. If the electric drive is to maintain its lead, the batteries in electric cars must become more efficient. Today, we look at three companies trying to solve the problems of rechargeable batteries.

E-cars? This is what matters now! Mercedes-Benz Group, Altech Advanced Materials, Varta

  • Electromobility
  • E-Cars
  • Sustainability

Higher, faster, further: That is the claim of the automotive industry for new e-car models. In fact, a lot has happened in recent years. From e-cars made in France, which at best managed around 200km, to sedans that now travel 1,000km, the development is great. Nevertheless, the comparison between small cars, sedans or SUVs is limp. Reason enough to take a closer look at what really makes e-cars better, using three listed companies as examples.

BioNTech, BYD, Altech Advanced Materials: Excitement is rising

  • Battery
  • Electromobility
  • Biotechnology

So much for the summer slump. The stock markets are generally friendly at the moment, and many shares are reacting with significant price swings to news, both negative and positive. Like with BioNTech, the share price fell sharply after an impressive rally after the quarterly figures. There are good reasons for rising prices in the coming weeks. BYD is also going full throttle operationally. The e-car manufacturer is reporting one sales record after another, and details are emerging about the launch in Germany to knock Tesla off its electric throne. E-cars, possibly also from BYD, are expected to incorporate battery technology from Altech Advanced Materials in the future. The Company is working on revolutionary technology, and new details are expected by the time of the AGM.
