Unbound Potential

Unbound Potential is driven by the mission to develop a novel type of battery, which will serve as one of the key elements of a decentralized and truly sustainable energy infrastructure. For this, we are addressing two challenges – firstly, the high cost of currently available storage technologies when deployed at scale, and secondly, their associated environmental impact and hazards. 

To fill this technology gap, we are developing an entirely novel type of battery. By taking advantage of inherently immiscible electrolytes forming a native interface when contacting each other, we can build batteries without using semi-permeable membranes. Such separator materials are a key element of basically all electrochemical battery systems. Our minimalistic design approach features a significantly lower CAPEX, as well as a lower OPEX. We expect our solution to become the most cost-efficient stationary storage technology when rolled out at scale.

“Leave every place a little better than you found it – if us Western people managed to do just that during our stay on Earth, that would be quite an achievement.“

  • Low-Carbon Basic Materials

    Basic materials such as steel, cement, chemicals and lime account for almost half of Germany’s industrial emissions. This poster sets out the options for decarbonizing their production. Five cross-cutting levers for industrial decarbonization are described: direct electrification, material circularity, energy efficiency, green hydrogen and PtX, and CCU/CCS. A case study then walks through the options…

  • Carbon Capture

    This two-page poster provides an overview of the carbon capture, utilization, and storage (CCUS) value chain and its associated technologies. CO₂ can be captured from industrial point sources or directly from the air. Then, it can be used in industrial processes or permanently stored to prevent its release into the atmosphere. The poster compares three…
