According to VARTA, the engion family storage unit by VARTA Storage GmbH will be seen on stage at the GreenTec Awards Gala. The engion storage device, which stores the “green energy” of the sun using a photovoltaic system, will supply the stage with electricity for the event. VARTA Micro Group reports that the company will also be presenting its range of products on an exhibition stand at the gala, including its power one premium hearing aid batteries. These mercury-free zinc air batteries are made sustainably and on an environmentally sound basis in Germany on fully automatic production lines in the company’s modern factory for hearing aid batteries.
