Intelligent controls for the energy supply and demand as well as the development of components for the smart grid both fall under the topic of energy distribution. The entire framework of energy system technology responsible for optimizing the interplay between suppliers and consumers belongs to one of the most important areas of work for the energy transformation. Power electronics, ICT for energy systems and the system integration of electricity, heat and gas are important topics in this field.
Power grids are the backbone of our society and economy. That’s why their stability is a key issue in the transformation of our energy system from large-scale power plants to many decentralized plants. One...
To completely restructure an energy system, we as private individuals also have a role to play. That’s why we examined in one of the study’s scenarios the consequences of society’s unwillingness to...
One of the scenarios in our study assumes that there will be massive resistance to the expansion of new infrastructures in the energy sector. What needs to happen by 2050 to reduce our CO2 emissions from transport...
This scenario assumes that enough of us become so aware of climate change and the need for a climate-neutral energy system that we are prepared live more economically. What needs to happen by 2050 to reduce our CO2...
First of all, we hope the sparkling gold and blue stars on our card put you in a festive mood. Upon a second glance, you may have noticed the metal woven structure on the gold star and detected the vague pipe-like...
SolarWorld is only the latest bankrupt PV manufacturer in Germany. Many now wonder: What is the matter with photovoltaics in Germany and what is next? When trying to answer these questions, we have to look at three...
