Let’s work together to make a difference for our planet.
What is “Energy Science for Tomorrow”?
First and foremost, it’s pretty exciting! It’s an initiative of the institutions of the ETH Domain – ETH Zurich, EPFL, Empa and PSI, along with the Swiss Museum of Transport in Luzern and other partners, to engage with you and inform you about the Swiss Energy Strategy 2050 and the research we do to achieve a climate-neutral energy system.
What does that mean?
It means that we’re all working towards a sustainable future by shaping an energy system that relies on renewable resources, on the circular reuse of materials, and that is free of waste or emissions.
We can all play a role in making that happen!
Through exhibitions, digital platforms, and outreach activities, we will explain and have conversations and discussions with anyone interested about how we can move towards our 2050 policy targets. That way, we can all understand what each of us can do to help and contribute to a better future.
Make sure to check back for regular updates on the initiative, and join in on the fun activities planned!

Learn
With this initiative and as leaders in energy research, the institutions of the ETH Domain make it a priority to share science-based, neutral energy-relevant knowledge with people from all backgrounds to achieve the energy transition and our climate goals by the year 2050. Learn about the different forms of energy, observe your energy use in everyday life and take a look at the energy future 2050!
About Us
This Joint Initiative aims to engage with society and foster a dialogue with all generations on the topic of energy. An exhibition, living labs, digital dialogue platforms, outreach activities, and communication channels developed with the institutions of the ETH Domain – ETH Zurich, EPFL, Empa and PSI, the Swiss Museum of Transport (Verkehrshaus der Schweiz, VHS), and other partners from science, industry, and society. The regularly changing exhibition and living lab will become a permanent part of the VHS “House of Energy”. At the same time, specific exhibits will also temporarily be showcased at the different academic institutions during a period of time. In the planned living labs, we envision an interactive engagement with visitors, which will allow them to experience science first-hand and get in touch with our researchers.
