All Electric Society

This is not the time for non-commitment, because non-commitment leads to endless discussions – which means that we lose time. Time that is necessary in the full sense of the word. The All Electric Society is a vision of the future that is coherent in itself. Extensive networking with convergent data platforms renders energy flows transparent and manageable, and the energy itself is generated by renewable sources. While the AES concept is coherent, there are naturally also areas that are still struggling with electrification, and there are bridging technologies in areas where there is no other way at present. But all in all, the AES makes me optimistic because we can now actively shape the future with vigour and passion. Be sure to be part of it!

All Electric Society: The great vision of the future

In order to meet the challenges of our time, such as decarbonisation and demographic change, we need a unified vision: a sustainable and digitalised world. HARTING is contributing to the realisation of this vision with innovative technologies by promoting the transition from sector-based to open technologies.

Connecting World

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

The All Electric Society is a technological solution that contributes to achieving the seventeen sustainability goals of the United Nations, which have been in force since January 2016.

Sector coupling places demanding requirements on the connectors

How can the energy transition succeed? Parts of industry and standardisation, including ZVEI, the Association for Electrical, Electronic & Information Technologies (VDE) and DKE, are advocating and campaigning for sector coupling in order to replace fossil fuels with renewable resources.

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.

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?

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. The use of electric machines and systems can cut energy costs and reduce CO2 emissions.
