About us
More than 300 scientists research and teach at Leibniz Universität Hannover at over 15 institutes in the field of interdisciplinary energy research. We support society, business and politics in the transformation of the energy supply towards a sustainable and resilient energy system. We are working on innovative solutions for the provision of energy from renewable sources, its integration into the energy system and its use in mobility, the heating sector and industry. With this, we want to contribute to achieving UN Sustainable Development Goal No. 7 - Availability of affordable and clean energy and No. 13 - Climate action.
