Sustainable Energy Impact (SEI) is a student project with the aim of providing students with practical experience from scientific projects. The project study follows the problem-based learning approach. It focuses on students actively engaging in solving real-world problems.

This semester we are working together with the scientific project GH2GH of the sustainable technologies lab.

Students of the winter semester 24/25 can choose to work on the following tasks: 

• Development of business models for the use of the hydrogen system in Ghana after the end of the project
• Techno-economic comparison of battery and hydrogen use
• Ecological comparison of battery and hydrogen use
• Investigation of the political framework for hydrogen in Ghana
• Development of a training concept for the use of the energy system for students of the HSBO (e.g. workshops)
• Organisation of a symposium to network stakeholders in the field of decentralised energy systems with hydrogen technology

Since the solution of the problem requires the knowledge of several disciplines, we aim to form an interdisciplinary team with different academic backgrounds. 

Currently, the project study is offered in the faculties of Electrical Engineering, Computer Science and Sustainability (E), Civil and Environmental Engineering (B) and Mechatronics and Mechanical Engineering (M), in which ECTS can be credited for successful participation. Interested students from other departments are asked to contact the project manager by e-mail.

Joining the project team is possible at the beginning of each semester. If you are interested, feel free to contact the project leader by email at any time for more information.

No, no previous knowledge is required to join the project and all bachelor or master students can participate. However, the motivation to familiarize oneself with new topics is expected.

Then feel free to get in contact!
