Fraunhofer Institute for Solar Energy Systems ISE

Dear customers, project partners, sponsors and friends,

The COVID-19 pandemic presents us with great challenges and requires all of us to act responsibly.
Our overriding priority is protecting the health of our employees and society in general. Therefore, we strictly adhere to the official regulations set down on the city, state and federal levels and the guidelines of the Fraunhofer-Gesellschaft. In addition, we are implementing measures specific to Fraunhofer ISE.
Taking these requirements into account, Fraunhofer ISE will remain at your service: We continue to work on your projects, do research and development in our laboratories and provide the services you are used to. At present, some of our employees are alternately working at the institute or in the home office. This change of location varies from day to day. However, thanks to modern digital tools, we are able to ensure our continued cooperation. The best way to therefore get in touch with your contact person is by e-mail. Should you still have difficulties contacting us, please call our central number: +49 761 4588-0.

We wish you, your relatives and employees continued good health!

Warm regards,

Prof. Dr. Hans-Martin Henning
