well based CEBra – Centre for Energy Technology Brandenburg § Based on the competences of the Brandenburg Technical University in Cottbus R&D services have been concentrated in a central scientific institution and will be better promoted (CEBra BTU). § A strong link to other universities in the field of energy has been formed. Former co-workers of the energy agency of Brandenburg add the competence of collaboration with market actors. Public and private stakeholders have formed an association of public utility (CEBra e. V. ) to support SMEs in the field of energy technology. The association (e. V. ) has founded a limited company to offer services and project management (CEBra Gmb. H). § § §
