Tsunami warning system

In 2005, Heindl applied for a patent for the tsunami alarm system, which for the first time can send direct warnings of tsunami dangers via SMS, and implemented it technically.

Artificial glaciers

A process developed by Heindl to create artificial glaciers with low energy and resource consumption and to rebuild existing glaciers.

Layer energy storage

The local energy storage is a concept from Heindl in which electrical energy can be stored by hydraulically lifting a very large mass of rock. The German patent DE102010034757B4 was granted for the energy storage system.
