INTERDISCIPLINARITY IS THE KEY
With expertise from a wide range of disciplines, 100 researchers from ASCR’s shareholders are working on the development and integration of new technology under real use conditions and with real data. Research is conducted in cross-domain technology streams in order to accommodate the high degree of intermeshing between use cases and to maintain a holistic approach.
The actual integration and use testing within the individual domains is carried out at the same time using specific research questions or use cases.
Furthermore, all solutions are based on a cross-functional information and communications infrastructure; suitable models for processing large amounts of data (big-data methods) are being developed and tested for these systems.
Example
Generation of renewable energy by a building, direct use by residents and the possibility of transferring energy to the market via the grids are all directly interrelated.
SCALABLE SOLUTIONS FOR CITIES AND THEIR RESIDENTS
ASCR’s research is laying the foundation for the installation and operation of the urban energy systems of the future. The results of this research are expected to contribute significantly to the development of scalable solutions for the energy future of entire cities. This means that ASCR’s findings will apply to entire cities over the long term..
