FUTURE SUSTAINABLE ENERGY SUPPLY

 

The FUSES 2026 Spring School is a two-week international training course focusing on renewable energy and hydrogen technology. In recent years, about 45 students from Estonia, Lithuania, Poland, Norway, Finland, the Netherlands, Bulgaria, Brazil and Columbia took part. 

The seminars cover all topics of renewable energy systems and hydrogen technology. This includes practical labs on hydrogen technology and renewable energies, simulation games on energy transition scenarios as well as an excursion to the Hanover Fair.  The intensive programme is rounded up by intercultural evenings for students and lecturers. 

In addition to lectures, excursions and laboratory work, as an international participant you will also present your lab results, give a short presentation on the energy situation in your home country and take a final exam at the end of the two weeks. You will receive 5 ECTS credits for successful participation.
