Pader­born Uni­ver­sity's Com­pet­ence Centre for Sus­tain­able En­ergy Tech­no­logy hosts spring sym­posi­um

Location: Zukunftsmeile 2, Paderborn

The spring symposium of the Competence Centre for Sustainable Energy Technology (KET) at Paderborn University offers a unique opportunity to exchange ideas with experts from business and industry on Thursday, 27 February from 2 to 7 p.m. in Zukunftsmeile 2. Under the title "Quo vadis Energiewende: Solutions for the transformation in industry", participants will receive practical inspiration and can forge new partnerships. The symposium is aimed at companies working on the development of new solutions and components, as well as energy managers and decision-makers in energy-using industrial and commercial enterprises. Participation is free of charge. Those who are interested are kindly asked to register by Monday, 24 February. Further information and the registration form can be found on the event website.

In an increasingly dynamic age characterised by the need for transformation, companies are faced with the challenge of making energy consumption more efficient and using process heat sustainably. But how can optimisation be achieved in practice, especially when time is of the essence? "Many innovative approaches still remain unused. But it turns out that there are often more solutions than initially thought. At the spring symposium, we want to support companies in finding ways to exploit this potential and successfully master change," says Prof. Dr. Henning Meschede, Chairman of the KET Executive Board.

The programme will be opened by top-class experts from Paderborn University: Prof. Dr. René Fahr, Vice-President for Technology Transfer, will give the introductory welcoming remarks together with Prof. Dr.-Ing. Henning Meschede and Prof. Dr. Daniel Beverungen, spokesperson for the steering committee of the SICP - Software Innovation Campus Paderborn. This will be followed by keynote speeches from the field and lightning talks from the KET. "At topic islands, we will collect questions and ideas from participants for the subsequent panel discussion with experts from energy research and practice. The topics will include sustainable process heat, the circular economy, energy storage and artificial intelligence in connection with climate protection and data collection," summarises Meschede. Klaus Meyer from "Energie Impuls OWL" will moderate the spring symposium.
