As the year 2024 kicks off, Eindhoven Engine, Simpl.Energy and EIRES (Eindhoven Institute for Renewable Energy Systems) are joining forces for the Energy Grid Balancing initiative, aimed at addressing the pressing energy challenges faced by the Brainport region. This pioneering project  is receiving a boost with a €50,000 subsidy from the Stimuleringsfonds (Stimulation Fund) of the Metropoolregio Eindhoven (MRE).

We are thrilled to present the H2I Energy Transition Prize!

The winning teams will be awarded with the following prizes:
• Personalized Guidance: Receive expert guidance from the challenge owner.
• Strategic Insights: Dive into a Business Model Innovation workshop with our Wicked Problem Officer, Walter Baets.
• Workspace Excellence: Enjoy a six-month workspace at Eindhoven Engine.
• Sustainable Inspiration: Receive a thoughtfully sustainable gift.

During the hackathon, we will tackle three exciting Energy Transition challenges:

1. How to create future water treatment systems?

2. How to design an energy-neutral campus through behavioral change and efficient energy use?       

3. How to realize changes in behavior among businesses and households in the purchase and use of solar panels?

Ready to join our Hack2Impact hackathon on 29 Feb @TU/e Campus from 8:30 - 20:00 and be part of shaping the future of  the Energy Transition?

Hi all, my name is Steven Beumer and for the last four years I’ve been doing my PhD at TU/e, specifically the Electromagnetics group of Electrical Engineering.

My research is focused on using transcranial electric stimulation for epilepsy patients that cannot be treated using medicine or surgery and is part of the PerStim project. This project was conceived from the wish to be able to reduce the treatment gap in epilepsy and thus lower the burden of this disease on patients and society.
