E.ON Supports Nanotechnology with € 6 Million

Abstract:
- Minute particles with great potential in the energy technology sector
- Continuation of € 60 million research program

Exploring the potential of nanotechnology for energy supply - this is the focus of the current invitation for applications under E.ON's International Research Initiative. This year a sum of € 6 million is again available for this purpose. Teams and researchers from all over the world can apply to E.ON to obtain support for projects dealing with the use of nanotechnology in fields such as energy storage, electricity transmission, carbon capture and storage or energy saving through Nano LEDs for example. With this focus E.ON is backing a still very young research discipline because experts assume that the minute particles ranging from 1 to 100 nanometers in size can greatly benefit energy use that is both more efficient and better for our climate.
