Interdisciplinary Study of the Energy and Raw Materials Transition “DYNERGY”

The transition to sustainable energy and raw materials, along with the urgent need to combat climate change, poses significant economic and social challenges. The energy industry and its production processes are undergoing a transformation – from large stationary factories and fossil fuels to smaller, more flexible units with different input materials and renewable energy sources that are becoming more dynamic. Companies must therefore position themselves to be future-proof and socially responsible. The same applies to local government.

Prepare yourself for upcoming changes in the energy and raw materials industry and deepen your knowledge of industry coupling and cross-industry mergers. Designing energy and production systems to adapt to evolving market dynamics and regulatory frameworks presents new challenges that demand sustainable solutions and highly skilled professionals.
