Energy and Environment (E+E)

The TU Darmstadt Research Field Energy and Environment (E+E) sees itself as the research incubator for solutions to energy and environment problems, because we link expertise from engineering, natural sciences, humanities and social sciences – act holistically, and bring concrete solutions to feasibility.

Cluster project “Clean Circles”

With our cluster project "Clean Circles" we are researching together with our partners how to store and transport renewable energies efficiently. The cluster project's answer is an innovative energy-substance cycle as a central building block of the energy transition.

Think. Link. Do. Our commitment

Research is not merely knowing and understanding. We are focused on developing solutions to urgent problems. That's why we think things through. We develop visions and approaches, and carry them through until they are ready for implementation.

E+E Profile Topics

Within the research field Energy and Environment (E+E), the integrity of our research is expressed through dynamically developing profile topics. Collaborative research projects, which are thematically and methodologically linked, correspond to each profile topic.

Carbon Neutral Circles

We are researching hydrogen and metals as energy storage for climate-neutral energy cycles, in order to realise climate-neutrality post-haste.

Computational Engineering

We are researching and using computational models to analyse and optimise new types of products and systems before they are realised.

Learn more

Integrated Energy Systems

We are researching intelligent energy systems of the future in which electricity, heat, and mobility are tied together, so that sustainable energy supply is ensured constantly and universally, even in the event of volatile demand.

Scalable Clean Water Cycles

We are researching solutions which enable sustainable management of our water resources so that water is available to all in good quality and sufficient quantity, even in times of climate change.

Thermo-Fluids and Interfacial Phenomena

We are investigating the relationships between flows and their interactions with interfaces in detail, so that novel and resource-saving processes of energy conversion and process engineering can be more conceivable and feasible.
