Resilience for Sustainable, Inclusive Growth

May 4, 2022

Resilience for Sustainable,
Economies and societies are enduring several
crises simultaneously, all of which have a major
humanitarian impact and potentially long-lasting
second- and third-order effects. Climate change,
the COVID-19 pandemic, a very weak recovery
and the danger of stagflation and now Russia’s
invasion of Ukraine pose urgent questions of
organizational resilience that cannot be addressed
in isolation. These world-shaping events overlap
in time, magnifying their impact. The current era
is increasingly defined by the interplay of complex
disruptions, with their disparate origins and longterm consequences. Institutions are not fully
prepared for the new reality. Many react separately
to each disruption in all-consuming responses.
Before they can recover, the next crisis is at the door.

Is the sun shining on new energy sources?

whitePaper | January 27, 2020

Although the European Union (EU) seems to be on track to meet this year’s greenhouse gas (GHG) emission reduction target of 20% compared to 1990 levels, it is currently not projected to achieve the 2030 targets. In line with the Paris Climate Agreement of 2015, these targets relate to domestic GHG emissions, the share of renewable energy sources and energy efficiencyi . Hence, radical change is required and we all need to do our bit. With road transport accounting for approximately 20% of carbon dioxide (CO2 ) emissions in the EU alone, the mobility sector can play an important role in helping to accomplish the environmental targets.

How to make the charging infrastructure for electric vehicles smart

whitePaper | November 30, 2022

Renewable energies and the increasing emergence of electric vehicles are putting a strain on the electricity grid. The former are not constantly available, and the latter require additional energy while charging. This leads to the need for introducing a new, smart charging infrastructure to avoid instabilities at the grid level. This white paper explains what is involved in making a charging infrastructure truly “smart” and what obstacles can be expected along the way. It also outlines why vehicle owners do not need to fear batteries degradation, and which semiconductor devices and other supporting technologies Infineon provides for such applications.
