Success of the energy turnaround will not only depend on technical developments. The transformation of the energy sys-tem can only be achieved with the acceptance of society. This challenge will be in the focus of the “Helmholtz-Gespräche zur Energiewende” (Helmholtz talks on the energy turnaround) on Wednesday, June 27, 18 hrs, at the Berlin-Brandenburg Academy of Sciences. Starting point of the discussion will be the activities of the ENERGY-TRANS Helmholtz Alliance coordinated by Karlsruhe Institute of Technology (KIT). Representatives of the media are cordially invited.
In close partnership with society, KIT develops solutions for urgent challenges – from climate change, energy transition and sustainable use of natural resources to artificial intelligence, sovereignty and an aging population. As The University in the Helmholtz Association, KIT unites scientific excellence from insight to application-driven research under one roof – and is thus in a unique position to drive this transformation. As a University of Excellence, KIT offers its more than 10,000 employees and 22,800 students outstanding opportunities to shape a sustainable and resilient future. KIT – Science for Impact.
