Power
The power industry encompasses electricity generation from burning fossil fuels and renewable energy sources such as hydro, wind or solar power. Global power demand is set to rise, with renewable energy sources expected to play an increasingly crucial role to in the energy generation mix to meet the additional demand, while the industry steers away from fossil fuel powered generation.

Increase in demand for electricity by 2050 in EIA’s STEPS scenario.

3 trillion
The share of renewable energy sources (e.g. biogas, wind, solar) in power generation has grown significantly and now plays a crucial role in the decarbonisation of power systems. This development has fundamentally changed the market dynamics of power and has led to the need for flexible power solutions such as batteries.
Our Focus Areas
Biogas
- Biogas is a renewable energy produced through anaerobic digestion of organic materials like waste and sewage, yielding methane which is then used for electricity generation.
Battery Recycling
- Batteries are crucial in integrating renewables into the grid, as they help balance the demand and supply of power.
- Battery recycling will thus play a crucial role in ensuring a circular economy
Carbon Capture & Storage
- CCS is a method of capturing and storing CO2, to prevent its release into the atmosphere.
- The main processes involve capture of CO2, transportation and then permanent storage underground.
- CCS offers a transitionary solution in hard-to-abate sectors such as power to reduce emissions.
