I Keynoted at Future of Utilities in Amsterdam.
My message: The future of industrial heat is solar.
Nearly 50% of industrial energy is heat under 400°C — perfect for solar thermal to replace gas and cut emissions fast.
Solar heat + storage + hybrid systems = climate-neutral industry. Ready. Scalable. Now.

State-of-the-art HoloLens® glasses are used in a plant for intermediate products at the Ludwigshafen site in order to plan and implement plant modifications in a fast and cost-efficient manner. Andreas Ernst (right), Assistant Asset Manager, and Felix Volkmann (left), Asset Manager, can see a digital 3D model of the plant in their glasses, which is superimposed on their real field of vision. This allows them to check planned modifications, such as changes to piping, directly in the plant. They can see whether all parts fit together precisely or whether they still need to be adapted. The plant for intermediate products is made up of 16 plant sections and manufactures a broad portfolio of around 50 intermediate products such as amines or diols. BASF customers need these products for applications including the production of coatings for the automotive industry, pharma or crop protection products.
The modern control station in the intermediate products plant at the Ludwigshafen site is where all information relating to the plant comes together. Using numerous screens, the plant operators control and monitor the highly complex chemical processes. On the “Collaboration Board” (right), a large touchscreen in the center of the room, the employees call up all the important information at the same time and can thus work in an effective and concentrated manner. The employees also use the “Collaboration Board” for training, as the large, interactive screen is ideal for conveying learning contents.
