FAU Profile Center Solar
The FAU Profile Center Solar is a driving force for future research in solar energy systems, innovation and relevant future-oriented research. It aims to accelerate the development of printable semiconductors to overcome the limitations of solar energy conversion.
Solar energy conversion is a leading solution in the fight against climate change while maintaining economic prosperity. However, serious bottlenecks in performance, versatility, and recycling are impeding rapid expansion. A radical paradigm shift is needed, requiring a multi-parameter, multi-objective optimization strategy, including the development of a digital twin for solar energy conversion systems. This strategy will enable breakthroughs that exceed current limitations. The FAU Solar Profile Center is dedicated to scientific excellence in research and education, combining strengths in engineering, science, data science, and economics.
Profile Centers shape the research profile of FAU with a wide range of cutting-edge research projects. An overview of all FAU profile, research and competence centers can be found on the FAU Research profile website.
