M2G at The Long Night of Sci­ence 2025

A lar­ge-sca­le power outa­ge can have serious consequences—especially for cri­ti­cal infra­struc­tu­re such as hos­pi­tals or data cen­ters. An inno­va­ti­ve pilot pro­ject is explo­ring whe­ther elec­tric vehic­les can ser­ve as mobi­le emer­gen­cy power sources in such scenarios.

The pro­ject is a col­la­bo­ra­ti­on bet­ween the Max Planck Insti­tu­te for Human Deve­lo­p­ment, the Mobility2Grid rese­arch cam­pus, BVG, and Sie­mens Ener­gy. Tog­e­ther, they are con­duc­ting exten­si­ve tests on the institute’s grounds to eva­lua­te how elec­tric buses and trucks per­form in cri­sis situa­tions. The insights gai­ned will con­tri­bu­te to the deve­lo­p­ment of a robust con­cept for secu­ring power sup­p­ly to cri­ti­cal infrastructure.

Visi­tors are warm­ly invi­ted to learn more about the pro­ject on site, ask ques­ti­ons, and expe­ri­ence the tech­no­lo­gy up close.
