A future built on sustainable energy requires more than renewable resources alone.
It requires the materials that make energy technologies more efficient, more durable, and more accessible – enabling us to generate, store, and use energy in smarter ways.
At the Research Center Future Energy Materials and Systems (RC FEMS), researchers develop new materials for future energy technologies. A new video explores the people and ideas driving this research forward.
Professors Christof Schulz and Anna Isaeva provide insights into their work on developing novel materials from the ground up.
With more than 60 researchers, the Research Center focuses on high-performance functional materials that are based on readily available raw materials and are cost-effective, durable, and energy-efficient.
The Research Center is part of the University Alliance Ruhr (UA Ruhr), in which the universities Ruhr University Bochum, TU Dortmund University, and University of Duisburg-Essen join forces to form one of Germany’s most dynamic academic networks.
