Open day: Discover the future of drive technologies in Cottbus!
On Saturday, July 19, 2025, the Center for Hybrid Electric Systems Cottbus (Chesco) opens its doors to interested and technology enthusiasts. From 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. there are exciting insights into the drive technologies that will shape the mobility of the future. Niederlausitz currently reports that the event is aimed at awareness of climate neutral To sharpen solutions in aviation, transportation, in the train and shipping.
Visitors can look forward to varied tours and short lectures. An exciting program is offered, especially for the little guests, which includes a bumblebees, handicrafts and exit games. The highlight for all participants could be the Chesco quiz on climate neutrality and mobility, in which the winning contribution of the Brandenburg Science Slam is also presented: “(e) Mission (IM) possible”.
research in focus
The Chesco is not just an exhibition; It is a lively research location with a state -of -the -art machine park for the development of hybridelectric and electrical systems.
An important research focus is the reduction in air travel that is to be achieved by combining electric motors and gas turbines. This technology, which is known as hybrid-electrical flies, is considered the key to reducing nitrogen oxide and noise emissions in air traffic. The Fraunhofer institutes work on several projects to speed up the development of modern drive components and to provide prototypes faster.
collaboration and innovation
The Fraunhofer Institute for Machine Tools and Forming Technology IWU coordinates important research projects as part of these efforts. These include not only the production of combustion chamber housings, but also the optimization of electrical drives. Fraunhofer iWu relies on digital representation to make processes from development to series production efficiently.goal is to use the advantages of hybridelectric drives by using larger, slower rotating rotors that generate less noise. Efficient manufacturing technologies are to be developed together with other Fraunhofer institutes that specialize in additive manufacturing and innovative 3D printing processes. In addition, the Center for Hybrid Electric Systems has close connections to Rolls-Royce Germany, the only German manufacturer of aviation companies to secure competencies for future series productions.
With projects like this, Lausitz not only positions itself as an innovation smithy in the aviation industry, but also strives to create attractive jobs in the region. The perspectives in the area of hybridelectric flying are promising, and Cottbus plays a central role here.
The event is rounded off by numerous options for discussion and exchange with the researchers. If you want to know what the mobility of tomorrow looks like, this event must not miss!
