Science

“Modern research city” is part of Jülich’s brand name. Science has been at home in Jülich not only since Forschungszentrum Jülich (FZJ, then still known as KFA) was established in 1956. Today, the local companies include six interdisciplinary research institutes on the Jülich campus of Aachen University of Applied Sciences

Brainergy Park

From an idea of three mayors of the municipalities of Jülich, Niederzier and Titz, the heart of the Rhenish mining district is growing in structural change: the Brainergy Park. The company was founded in 2014 - at that time still under the name Entwicklungsgesellschaft Campus Merscher Höhe mbH. On the 52-hectare site and with an innovative special area of around…

DLR

In Jülich, the German Aerospace Center shines less through its namesake areas than through its special research in the field of “solar energy”. Both the two solar towers and the Synlight project are part of the DLR facilities. The headquarters of the research center is in Cologne. Jülich is one of the other 30 locations in Germany.

Jülich is a student city - even if it is sometimes hidden from view. Over 3,500 students are involved in three faculties on the Jülich campus.

Alternative energies and fuels find a good economic environment in Jülich. Since 2022, the company Synhelion, headquartered in Switzerland, has opened a site at Brainergy Park Jülich. The world's first industrial plant for solar fuels is being built here. For the first time, the technology chain from concentrated sunlight to synthetic liquid fuel will be covered on an industrial scale.

Synlight

Jülich attracted worldwide attention overnight with the launch of the Synlight large-scale research facility in 2016. The facility is the largest large-scale research facility for generating artificial sunlight. 149 high-performance emitters, each with the power of a large cinema projector, are arranged on an area measuring 14 by 16 meters. The solar simulator achieves 10,000 times the intensity of natural…
