Energy from hydrogen will play a major role in road freight transport. Area-wide applications in local public transport already exist today. In the passenger car sector, accumulators (rechargeable batteries) already cover the energy requirements of electric cars. But how can the recycling cycle of an energy storage system work in practice? The Munich start-up LiBCycle wants to find an answer to this. Two students from the Technical University (TU) in Munich took on this exciting question. Philipp Brunotte and Áron Németh deal in detail with the development of sustainable electromobility. Both integrate a logistical cycle into their concept, which is supposed to fundamentally simplify the recycling of old or defective energy sources. "In this context, the heart of the transports is a box that we have developed," says LiBCycle Managing Director Philipp Brunotte. "With it, we can transport almost all common types of battery safely and quickly." The logistical expertise and the network to potential users come from inTime Express Logistik GmbH, which has a majority stake in the Bavarian start-up. "The young people's concept convinced us," explains Gerd Röttger, Managing Director of inTime. “Their idea fits in very well with our experience of agile logistics for the automotive industry. Because especially in the area of dangerous goods transport, we can work together to expand the range of products to our customers. Combined with the ideas of the young entrepreneurs from LiBCycle, the logistics service provider can offer comprehensive complete solutions in the future. “In the future, industrial users will no longer have to worry about transport, but can concentrate on their core business. This includes further developing innovative battery technologies and thus your vehicles, ”says Brunotte, explaining an important advantage of the concept. For this purpose, he and Németh have started to develop an IT-supported platform, which makes the status and location of batteries traceable for manufacturers of electric vehicles and users and simplifies the entire supply chain in battery recycling. “We want to offer everything from a single source, from the provision of the transport box to the logistics to the automatic determination of the destination,” continues Philipp Brunotte. “It is precisely this view of the entire supply chain that is crucial. Because only in this way can we become a decisive factor for the success of our customers. Because our solution saves them money, ”says Gerd Röttger. “We want to offer everything from a single source, from the provision of the transport box to the logistics to the automatic determination of the destination,” continues Philipp Brunotte. “It is precisely this view of the entire supply chain that is crucial.
