Sector coupling is an effective means of achieving the energy transition efficiently. The aim is to effectively connect sectors such as industry, buildings and transport. When they are interconnected and the components of energy generation from renewable energies are combined, CO2 emissions can be significantly reduced. Storage solutions help to balance out volatile renewable energies. Taking the industrial company KOSTAL Solar Electric as an example, we look at the opportunities and challenges of sector coupling, speaking to Lars Brinkmeyer, International Sales Director responsible for the German company’s business development in Europe.
