Decarbonisation Summer School 2025 – Shaping the Future of Industry

From 9 to 11 September 2025, the Decarbonisation Summer School took place in Cottbus, in the structurally transforming region of Lusatia. The event offered a unique opportunity to connect with like-minded peers, gain practical experience, and contribute to a climate-neutral future. Over the course of an intensive three-day programme, the participants were collaborating with industry experts and researchers through hands-on workshops, real-world case studies, and site visits. As part of a focused design sprint, they developed practical, application-oriented solutions for decarbonising energy-intensive industries and supporting Germany’s energy transition. The Participants presented their outcomes at the CDI Summer Summit in the form of innovation pitches.

The Decarbonisation Summer School was a collaboration between the Cluster Decarbonisation in Industry (CDI) and the Lusatian Science Network (LSN).  For more information on the CDI see: https://www.cluster-dekarbonisierung.de/en/home.html
