The German Aerospace Center (DLR) is a leading research organization in Germany, employing more than 10,000 people across 30 sites. It is organized into more than 50 institutes and facilities, each dedicated to specific research topics. Within CHASE, two DLR institutes are involved: the Institute of Low-Carbon Industrial Processes, which focuses on developing high-temperature heat pumps, decarbonizing energy-intensive industrial processes that are difficult or impossible to electrify, and analyzing and developing simulation tools for the digital replication of industrial processes as well as the Institute of Engineering Thermodynamics, which concentrates on key technologies for energy storage and energy conversion, such as fuel cells, electrolysers, batteries, and heat storage systems for industrial applications.
