On July 19, 2024, our colleagues Katharina Rothhöft, Dominik Büschgens and Felix Kaiser took part in the synchronization workshop of the EE4InG2 project at the BMWK in Bonn. The biannual workshops provide a platform for exchange between the project partners, the Federal Ministry for Economic Affairs and Climate Protection (BMWK), the Project Management Jülich (PTJ) and the researchers to discuss the progress of the project.
The workshop began with a comprehensive review of the project’s various work packages, which cover different topics and research focuses. Eight members of the project gave short presentations on the current status of their work. Each presentation was followed by in-depth discussions in which questions were clarified and valuable comments were made.
Katharina Rothhöft gave two presentations on the current status of the IOB’s work. In the first presentation, she introduced the technology portfolio, a comprehensive overview document in which various technologies are categorized and systematically classified. She explained how these classifications are made and the criteria on which the selection and analysis of the technologies are based. The second presentation dealt with technology analyses, in which a selected technology is examined in more detail.
In addition to the IOB, ETA Solutions and IREES GmbH are also involved in the project as key partners. Their contributions and the close collaboration between the partners and researchers helped to advance the project goals. Overall, the workshop was productive and successful. The EE4InG2 project is on schedule and received positive feedback from all participants.
We would like to thank the BMWK for organizing the workshop and look forward to incorporating the knowledge gained into our further research work and continuing to intensify our collaboration with the project partners.
