Transform the energy industry
The way in which we generate, store and use energy is undergoing radical change. Energy efficiency, the transition to renewable energies, the development of suitable storage technologies and the establishment of intelligent networks (smart grids) are important cornerstones for securing the energy supply of the future. This transformation is largely dependent on scientific and technological breakthroughs such as those produced at the interdisciplinary KIT Energy Center.
KIT has exciting technology offers for you to realize sustainable and competitive energy solutions. As an industrial partner, you can not only further develop yourself and your products, but also open up new business areas. We are looking for companies that want to actively shape the energy transition by working with us.
