Welcome to the Department of Energy and Environmental Management (EUM) - Industrial

The focus of teaching and research of the Department of Energy and Environmental Management is on the transformation from fossil energy systems to 100% renewable energy systems in order to achieve the increase of the global average temperature to a maximum of 1.5°C by the year 2050.

Our research is divided into different research foci:

- The three research foci of International Energy Transformation, European/German Energy Transformation, and Energy System Modeling, coordinated by Prof. Dr. Pao-Yu Oei.

- The research focus Energy Sufficiency, coordinated by Prof. Dr. Frauke Wiese.

The master’s program "Energy and Environmental Management - Industrial Countries" imparts the necessary knowledge and skills to shape the energy system of the future. In order to cope with the greatest challenge of the 21st century, man-made climate change, it is essential to convert the global energy supply over the next few decades to 100% renewable energy sources and to make the provision and use of energy much more efficient.
