HIU at Open Day of the KIT

Professor Dr. Maximilian Fichtner reported on the current situation in energy supply at KIT’s Open Day. The focus was on the contribution that batteries can make to the storage of renewable energies and the challenges that have to be mastered in order to implement the energy system transformation in the coming years.

 

Learning tractors, synthetic CO2-neutral fuels, new technologies for e-mobility, innovative vehicle and transport systems. In addition, there was a knowledge rally for children and a top-class stage programme. KIT presented all this at the Open Day on Saturday, 29 June 2019, which also marked the start of this year’s EFFEKTE science festival in Karlsruhe. 9,000 visitors plunged into the exciting world of science at KIT’s Campus East with hands-on activities, lectures and demonstrations.
