The aim of automation technology is to design machines and systems in such a way that they can be operated largely independently and without major human involvement. Electrical energy technology deals with the classic and decentralized provision of electrical energy from alternative sources, use, conversion, storage and transport with intelligent energy management systems and electrical drives. Electromobility serves future developments in the automotive industry and includes all aspects of e-mobility, from energy-saving mobile electric drives to energy storage and the required power electronic components.
