The Energy Systems Lab at the Lehrstuhl für Energieverbundtechnik an der Montanuniversität Leoben is a demonstration, innovation, and training center for industrial energy systems. The lab is based on an innovative Power System Hardware in the Loop (PSHIL) concept.
The E.Factory Lab of the Upper Austrian Energiesparverband aims to spark interest in the industrial energy transition in schools to address the shortage of skilled workers in industry and research. To achieve this, age- and target-specific information and communication activities are used to motivate students to engage with the energy transition in industry and to consider this field as a potential future career path.
As part of school visits conducted by Business Upper Austria, we provide scientifically grounded explanations of the challenges associated with the energy transition and showcase perspectives, solution approaches, as well as opportunities to become actively engaged.
