The energy cluster in saxony

Working Groups

Currently, there are five interdisciplinary working groups dealing with a variety of energy-related topics on the initiative of the ENERGY SAXONY members.

You wish to discuss or push certain topics or project ideas with other industry players? We are pleased to provide a suitable framework for your purposes and support you in finding the required partners. Further thematic working groups can be initiated at any time. Please, do not hesitate to contact us.

Energy-efficient Production

Industrial Production is one of Germany's most important economic pillars. To increase the competitiveness of German production processes, it is increasingly important to boost productivity through  resource efficiency.

Energy Solutions for Buildings

The "Building Energy Technology" working group brings together technical solutions for the design and realisation of new buildings with a focus on commercial and industrial properties. A holistic approach is pursued, which ensures a sustainable, low-emission and efficient energy supply as well as an optimal ambient climate in the building.

Resources and Recycling

The working group "Resources and Recycling" aims at exploiting potentials of the raw material recycling of waste / old facilities for closing material cycles in view of limited resources. It wants to consider issues of recycling economy concerned with energy production and develop innovative approaches at the interface to other working groups.

 

 

Storage and Grid Services

The demands of ENERGY SAXONY as an energy cluster include the transfer of new technologies in practical application. This is the objective of the working group "Storage and Grid Services" for the electric, thermal and chemical storage of energy as well as consequent services for the operation of networks and similar applications.

 

 

Heating and Cooling

The objective, to advance the climate and ressource protection, can be realised by means of technologies contributing to energy conversation and increase of energy efficiency. The use of modern technologies for heating and cooling supply offer a high potential.

Energy technology components

The new generation landscape with electricity from growing shares of renewable energies, the coupling of electricity and heat generation and the integration of the transport sector poses new challenges for the network infrastructure. The working group has set itself the task of developing technical solutions for the energy networks so that an affordable supply can continue to be guaranteed with a high degree of security and environmental compatibility.
