“Energy System 2050” is a joint initiative of the Research Field Energy of the Helmholtz Association. The integration of essential technology elements into the energy system is examined and solutions are developed to successfully integrate the renewable energies, some of which fluctuate strongly, into the German and European energy supply. The aim is to develop tangible and usable systems engineering findings and technological solutions by 2019, which can be taken up by politics and industry.

At IAI, we are working on the work package IT system architecture and security in the cross-sectional research topic 5 “Toolbox with databases”.
