TU/e: Beyond Genius & an introduction to BACH, The power of partnerships

Genius and Bach

The GENIUS project began in 2024. The project page shows what is being tested in GENIUS.

On 10 December, we will successfully conclude the GENIUS project, and we would love to celebrate this with you at ‘Beyond GENIUS & Introduction to BACH: The power of partnerships’.We’ll also be demonstrating that, as a catalyst, the end of the GENIUS project marks the start of many new activities, initiatives and projects, such as the BACH project. In the BACH project, we’ll be taking the next step.

Achieved together

Working closely with our partners and stakeholders, we have reached an important milestone: we have developed a blueprint for smart energy management and transformed the TU/e Campus into a future-proof energy garden for industry and research. This is an achievement to be proud of. By pooling our knowledge and expertise, working closely together and trusting one another, we have been able to take this step together. This milestone deserves to be celebrated. That is why we warmly welcome you to the festive closing event of Genius and the transition to BACH.

Genius – Building smarter together

Through the European innovation project GENIUS, TU/e, together with a strong consortium of partners, is taking a major step towards a future-proof campus. The project will run for three years (2024–2026). Together, we are building a smart, flexible energy system that not only tackles growing grid congestion but also serves as a model for other campuses and industrial estates.
