New center for energy research and mobility in Switzerland is announced – plus a call for research proposals
Competence Center for Energy and Mobility (CCE)
The ETH Board is building up a Competence Center for Energy and Mobility (CCE), under the lead management of the Paul Scherrer Institute (PSI) in Villigen, Switzerland. The CCE will contribute significantly to sustainable energy solutions and strengthen the Swiss technical employment market. The new center combines research competence of Swiss technical universities and research institutes, namely the PSI, the two Swiss Federal Institutes of Technology (ETH Zurich and EPF Lausanne), Empa and the University of Applied Sciences Aargau, Northwestern Switzerland (FHNW). With the involvement of industrial partners the center will be a nationwide focus for energy research and development.
