The ZAE Bayern division in Würzburg is primarily involved in developing and optimizing materials and highly-efficient systems for thermal insulation. Particular areas of research are vacuum insulation materials, high-temperature insulation materials and solar systems for daylighting and low-energy architecture. A new field of activity is the development and optimization of organic solar cells and electronics. The ZAE Bayern division in Würzburg has know-how in the fields of nanostructured materials, innovative components and rational energy system management.

ZAE Bayern builds new research and demonstration building “Energy Efficiency Center” in Würzburg.
