Research Assistant in the joint project APPEAL - Photovoltaic Modules
Ground-breaking, Frisian, authentic – and in a top position when it comes to pioneering innovations: The University of Applied Sciences Emden/ Leer is a stimulus for the region. At the Emden/Leer University of Applied Sciences, which sees itself as an innovative, direction-oriented university of the future, half of the regular weekly working hours of full employment – limited until 30 June 2028 – must be occupied in the field of technology in the mechanical engineering department at the Emden Campus at the earliest possible time: Scientific staff*in the APPEAL project in Emden (according to the required qualification up to E 13 TV-L, 100 %) Reference number T 338 The APPEAL joint project develops new approaches for the automated production of building-integrated photovoltaic modules in small batch sizes. In the course of the project, it will be possible to economically produce PV modules with variable size, shape and design even in small quantities and thus to unlock new potentials for solar power generation on buildings. The University of Applied Sciences Emden/Leer works this project together with the Institute for Solar Energy Research in Hameln and Institutes from the University of Hanover and other industrial partners. The Emden/Leer University of Applied Sciences focuses on the laser-based production processes, such as cutting of system components for the production of modules and on the joining processes of the electrical interconnection of the solar cells. The aim of the project is to build a demo production plant to demonstrate the feasibility of economic production. Within the highly motivated project team, the Emden/Leer University of Applied Sciences and the Institute for Solar Energy Research provide an excellent infrastructure for carrying out scientific work. Possibilities for promotion can also be offered for interest. .
