Electrification could cut global energy use in half

Professor Jan Rosenow states the current system wastes two-thirds of energy inputs as heat, so electrification could halve total global energy demand. The discussion covers 95-97% recyclability of battery materials in the context of urban mining.

Field
energy and batteries
What they did
Electrification could cut global energy use in half because the current system is inefficient and wastes two-thirds of energy inputs as heat, particularly in mobility and heating sectors.
Why it matters
This would help reduce global energy demand by addressing the hidden 80% of energy consumption currently dominated by fossil fuels and improving overall energy efficiency.
