The CSIC participates in the development of a new generation of more robust and reliable induction cooktops
The CSIC collaborates in the European project iRel40, together with BSHE, Politecnico di Milano, Fraunhofer and Infineon, among others, for the development of a new generation of more reliable and robust induction cooktops. The IMB-CNM-CSIC is in charge of improving the qualification tests of power devices and determining why destructive events occur. The improvement of the protocols in the evaluation of components for power electronics and to improve their useful life are also sought.
A battery mimics the life cycle of a plant to generate electrical energy
A CSIC and BCMaterials team leads the development of a nature-inspired battery that can be biodegraded at the end of its lifetime following the natural cycle of a plant. The work proporses a new paradigm of sustainable batteries that follow the lifecycle of the devices they power.
