Hannover Messe 2025 In 2025, the Karlsruhe Institute of Technology (KIT) will be celebrating its 200th anniversary - an occasion for us to present the latest highlights from research and technology development in their entirety at the Hannover Messe. We cordially invite you to visit our booths from Monday, March 31, to Friday, April 4, 2025 in Hanover.
In the Future Hub in Hall 2, B35, we will be presenting a wide range of examples of new technologies with which we are helping to solve social challenges.
With the ZEco Thermal Lab, we are presenting research into elastocaloric cooling systems that use shape memory alloys to offer sustainable and environmentally friendly alternatives to conventional heating and cooling technologies. In the future, they could be used in applications ranging from microelectronics cooling to air conditioning systems.
Optical Metasurfaces: Discover ultra-thin, nanostructured surfaces that precisely control light and open up new possibilities in flat optics, polarization control and non-linear optics. Conceivable applications include advanced cameras, sensors and displays.
Get to know OpenEarable, an open-source sensor platform that is worn directly in the ear. It is equipped with versatile sensors and actuators for innovative applications such as fitness tracking and breath monitoring.
With KITTEN, we are presenting a project that combines a state-of-the-art particle accelerator (KARA) with Europe's largest research infrastructure for renewable energies (Energy Lab). As a contribution of basic research to climate protection, energy efficiency and grid stability of large-scale research facilities are optimized.
Or get in touch with the committed students of Engineers Without Borders Karlsruhe, who are involved in projects for sustainable development worldwide, and find out more about the close links between research, teaching and social commitment at KIT.
Visit our booth at the Energy Solutions in hall 13, C76 where you can discover KIT's future-oriented solutions for tomorrow's energy technology.
With the LeMoStore joint project, we are presenting a new type of multilevel converter with an integrated battery module for the energy transition. It provides high-quality alternating current and thus helps to flexibly integrate fluctuating direct current sources such as photovoltaic systems into the power grid.
With EcoPV, the Light Technology Institute (LTI) at KIT is presenting the latest developments in organic solar cells. The focus is on increasing efficiency through tandem solar cells, environmentally friendly production using halogen-free solvents and the integration of flexible solar cells in a wide range of applications such as building facades and mobile electronics.
The DiRecFM project is developing a process chain for the direct recycling of active materials from lithium-ion batteries. Innovative processes are to be used to recover the materials used and make them usable for the production of new batteries in order to increase resource efficiency and reduce the demand for raw materials.
Get to know the energy manager app from the spin-off RAZO (https://www.razo.energy/) - an innovative solution for private households that optimally networks photovoltaic systems, wallboxes, electric cars and power storage units.
At the KIT-Gründerschmiede stand in Hall 2 D26, you will also gain exciting insights into other successful spin-offs. Exchange ideas with innovative founders and discover how the transfer of research into application succeeds.
