Five students from ETH Zurich's Energy Science and Technology master's programme began work last week on a case study of the Swiss town of Sisslerfeld. The question of how the Sisslerfeld industrial zone and its neighbouring communities could become self-sufficient in terms of energy and CO2 neutrality by the year 2040 will occupy them for the next two semesters and will end in the summer of 2023.
Zurich, 27. January 2021. The new National Centre of Competence in Research (NCCR) "Dependable Ubiquitous Automation" has been launched - with the vision of strengthening Switzerland as one of the world's leading hubs for research, education and innovation in automation and control technology.
