Our focus is on climate neutrality – across its entire range

Our teams’ activities cover an enormous diversity of topics relating to the energy transition, climate protection and the path to climate neutrality. We examine the overarching connections while keeping our sights set on practical solutions. These are the areas in which we specialise.

Driving digitalisation and innovation

The only way to effectively control a decentralised energy system with millions of producers and even more flexible consumers is to use digital tools. How will we guarantee secure data transmission and reliable data integrity? What type of data governance will be required? And how can we put innovations into practice in a targeted manner?
