
Renewable Energy will build the key pillar of the national
energy system in Germany

Since 2011 the government has established new
research fields and programs for a new economy
2012: »Industrie 4.0«

research mission addresses the 4th industrial revolution
with a convergence of IT and production

Technological foundations are cyber-physical systems
and an internet of things and services
2013: »Morgenstadt«


Cities and regions in Germany are the central fields of
action for a sustainable development

Morgenstadt addresses an open systems
approach to combine urban, technological and economic development
Fraunhofer initiative »Morgenstadt«
Research for sustianable, livable and versatile
cities of the future
 »Morgenstadt« is one of the central future projects within the action plan of
the hightech strategy 2020 of the German Federal Government.
 Ten Fraunhofer Institutes support the future project »Morgenstadt« with
first pioneering projects:
 Concepts for an open
systems research »Morgenstadt«
 Foresight process for the
future city »Morgenstadt«

Solutions for sustainable and innovative BUILDINGS in
the cities of the future
 Buildings will have the greatest impact on the future of cities.
Therefore the whole lifecycle from planning to retrofitting has
to be re-thought.
 Fraunhofer is developing solutions for:
 innovative planning und building processes
 Sustainable and energy-surplus buildings

Intermediate project result
 Development of important basics for future Electric vehicles like wheel hub
motors, battery systems, charging stations
 Single components were integrated in test vehicles and currently serve as
testing platform for automobile manufacturers and suppliers in cooperation
with correspondent institutes
 The key to this successful project derives from pooling strengths through
institute comprehensive cooperation, to conjointly achieve more than as sum
of of the single institutes

 A great alliance of industry, cities and research has been formed.
 Membership is still possible for a short time.
 Becoming a member involves no risk – the project is already setup
and working.
 Future urban projects (global and national) will resort to knowledge and
information generated in m:ci.
 With the Fraunhofer Society the innovation network is run by the largest
organization for applied research in Europe.
