Transfer to society as the third pillar of university work will be sustainably established and strengthened through cooperation and networks.

The CELSIUZ co-creation lab (www.celsiuz.de) was created to present us in the East Saxony region in particular and to promote exchange with interested parties from business, society and politics. CELSIUZ offers space for creativity and - with the digital control station as a showcase for the HSCG's research - opportunities to visualize current and future research projects and results.

  • Preparation of transfer methods (instructions for implementation, best-practice examples) to support researchers at the HSZG,
  • Support and further development of the CELSIUZ transfer room together with the project team,
  • Increasing the visibility of in-house energy research through target group-oriented communication in science, business and society,
  • Active network maintenance for the heat and electricity transition in Eastern Saxony,
