  • Solar Charging Station

    The energy systems of the future will be networks comprising a wide variety of technologies and applications. Against the backdrop of the digital transformation, the energy transition, and climate change, this project at the Institute for Refrigeration, Air Conditioning, and Environmental Technology is developing a weatherproof charging station for laptops and cell phones on the HKA campus that operates autonomously using a solar power system. About the Project

  • The HKA Bike Rack

    As part of various project assignments in the Vehicle Technology program at the School of Mechanical Engineering and Mechatronics, a kiosk was designed where students can repair their bicycles for free and on their own. The kiosk is located in front of Building B. About the project
