Note
The Institute of Mechatronic Systems has now shifted its primary focus to robotic systems. The website has moved and can now be found under the new Institute of Robotic Systems in Mechanical Engineering.
Energy Systems
A lot of approaches used in mechatronics systems can be successfully applied in the field of energy technology. Research in the field of energy systems deals with a wide range of issues in a sector that is currently subject to dynamic changes. A significant part of the research and development activities deals with the topic of energy storage and is supplemented by overall system issues, such as smart grids or sector integration.
