Research and Innovation

The worldwide increasing demand for electrical energy, the finite nature of fossil primary resources and the risks of the climate change require a drastic change in our electrical energy system. Power engineering deals with generation, transmission, distribution and utilization of electric power. In this area the department of Energy & Process Engineering works on developing answers to many research questions.
