Electrifies me!

All Electric Society and cabling solutions - does the one have anything to do with the other?

Climate change, and with it advancing global warming, has not only set in, but is actually accelerating. There is now a consensus on this between science, politics, business and society. We must all contribute to halting this negative trend. The fact that the world's population is continuing to grow at the same time, thereby increasing the consumption of resources and energy, makes this challenge all the more daunting.

Sector coupling places demanding requirements on the connectors

An interview with Norbert Gemmeke, Managing Director of HARTING Electric, about the role of connectors in this scenario.

Ethernet data networks - a key success factor in the energy efficiency transition

The necessity of (industrial) Ethernet networks for networking in the energy transition is of crucial significance. Only by consistently expanding data networks to each and every energy consumer will efficient and intelligent energy infrastructures be enabled. Ethernet, as a reliable and widely used technology for data transmission, plays a key role in integrating various energy sources and consumers into the power grid.

Hannover Messe 2024: The leading venue for the "sustainable industry" drive

At the end of April, the Hannover Messe will once again be welcoming leading international industrial companies. The exhibition is increasingly featuring as the starting point for sustainable visions of the future. This is evidenced by the motto, the partner country and the presence of the All Electric Society.

Electrification Hub: Electrification can also be learned on the greenfield

Electrification Hub at Mälardalen University is a cooperation platform – or innovation accelerator as they call it themselves – that, together with industrial partners, is dedicated to electrification in terms of reducing emissions. The central electricity grids in the west have advantages, but there are also many obstacles. That is why the Electrification Hub is looking beyond the horizon. 

"Everything that is electrical must also be networked"

As Vice President of the International Electrotechnical Commission, Vimal Mahendru also wants to drive the All Electric Society forward on the standardisation side. Different regional requirements are a challenge, but also lead to solutions that have a sustainable impact across regions.

All Direct and Indirect Electric Society

In the course of decarbonisation, electrification is a strategy for many companies - and therefore both an opportunity and a challenge. .

"Electrification is the most efficient means"

The future is digital, climate-neutral and electric! Our mission statement is that of the All Electric Society (AES). Dr Daniel Nordsiek, Director Innovation Hub, spoke with Dr Lars Müller, Member of the Board of Rail Campus OWL e.V. and Head of Business Line Testing Services DB Systemtechnik GmbH and asked as to how the AES will be impacting the rail industry.

Advancing Toward an All Electric Society: A Pan American Perspective

From the northern reaches of Canada to the southern landscapes of Brazil, the Americas are forging ahead on the path toward an all-electric society. Each country, bringing its own initiatives and unique strengths to the table, is progressing the transition to sustainable energy sources and cleaner transportation systems.

All Electric Mindset? What sustainability means for specialists and managers

For employees, attuning to the future vision of the All Electric Society means rethinking technology and social responsibility. Just what does this entail for the Human Resources department? tec.news spoke with Doris Höpfl, Chief Human Resources & Legal Officer at the HARTING Technology Group.

How we are further electrifying production

Increasing electrification in the production area is an important trend that has gained in significance in recent years. Electrification enables companies to make their production processes more efficient and environmentally friendly at the same time.

Customised products in just a few hours

The vision of a society that meets its entire energy requirements by sourcing green electricity and distributing it in line with demand also poses new challenges for the suppliers of the necessary "hardware".
