Tackling Energy Transition with Electrification and Adhesive Innovation

As the global energy sector pivots toward sustainability, electrification stands out as a key solution. The Global Energy Perspective 2023 emphasizes this shift, while companies like tesa are helping lead the way by addressing critical bottlenecks with specialized adhesive technologies for automotive and industrial applications.

Why Electrification Matters

Achieving the Paris Agreement goals requires broad adoption of green technologies, particularly in electrification. Key challenges include:

• Scaling solar PV, wind, battery storage, and heat pumps to meet demand. • Addressing supply chain bottlenecks, labor shortages, and capital risk. • Overcoming reliability concerns in next-gen vehicles and devices.

Technology-Driven Adhesive Solutions

tesa’s innovations support electrification through a wide range of specialized adhesive applications, such as:

Electrical insulation – Critical for battery cell and module safety in EVs. • Secure mounting – Adhesives ensure component stability under vibration. • Thermal and noise protection – Tapes enhance battery life and passenger comfort. • Shielding and grounding – Prevents electromagnetic interference in vehicle systems. • Sealing and labeling – Protects batteries and supports traceability for maintenance.

These solutions are developed collaboratively with OEMs and suppliers to meet evolving industry needs.

Enabling Next-Gen Solar and Industrial Electronics

Beyond EVs, tesa is contributing to the solar revolution:

Flexible solar modules – Adhesives integrate ultralight PV cells into wearables and vehicles. • Charge collection tapes – Products like tesa® 60860 simplify solar module connections with bonding and conductivity in a single step.

In electronics and general industry, bonding tapes with thermal, shock-absorbing, or sound-damping properties outperform traditional fastening methods, offering cleaner, faster, and more versatile assembly options.

Building a Sustainable Future

Electrification is critical to reducing emissions and meeting global climate targets. tesa’s expertise in adhesive technology bridges innovation and practicality, enabling scalable, sustainable solutions for modern energy challenges. Their approach combines technical performance with global supply reliability to support a cleaner, carbon-neutral future.
