Energy-efficient development of the Lichtwiese Campus through intelligent system networking

We are working on a holistic concept for efficient energy supply "post2030" for the Lichtwiese campus. In the interdisciplinary EnEff:Stadt Campus Lichtwiese project, both the electrical energy supply and the heating and cooling requirements of the university are being considered. Comprehensive monitoring of the energy flows on campus forms the basis for a fundamental modernization strategy.

Project description

The Technical University of Darmstadt is striving for a drastic and rapid reduction of greenhouse gas emissions. To this end, measures were theoretically and practically examined and implemented as part of earlier phases of the project EnEff:Stadt Campus Lichtwiese. After individual measures had already been implemented in Phase II and evaluated in terms of their influence on the efficient energy supply of the campus, Phase III will see the realisation of the physical and digital integration of these and further measures into the energy system of the campus.

Through the EnEff:Campus project, TU Darmstadt is implementing the energy transition at the district level by intelligently integrating the energy supply sectors on the university campus.
