Increasing the efficiency of today’s processes of energy generation and conversion is a central building block for the success of the energy system transformation. The main focus of research at the Professorship for Energy Technology is the improvement and optimisation of energy processes. Comprehensive simulation models help to understand the mode of action in detail and to identify potential savings. The aim is to exploit these potentials through smart control strategies and to make a contribution to sustainable development. Together with industrial partners such as Continental Automotive GmbH in Regensburg, we are working on operating combustion engines more efficiently.
Fields of Research
