The Energy Lab is a project of the Karlsruhe Institute of Technology (KIT) in cooperation with the Helmholtz Centers German Aerospace Center (DLR) and Forschungszentrum Jülich (FZJ). Its Smart Energy System Simulation and Control Center (SEnSSiCC) houses the KASTEL Security Lab Energy.
External Infrastructures
To perform its mission of application-oriented IT security research, the
Topic TruST relies on the KASTEL Security Labs, research infrastructures
installed and enhanced since 2021. Those labs provide the real-world
components our research is conducted on as well as the specialized
competences necessary to integrate them into research systems. Each lab
is linked to a larger associated research infrastructure which is not
part of the Topic. These external infrastructures are a source of
interesting problems and additional expertise in their application areas.
Research Factory

The Karlsruhe Research Factory for AI-integrated Production is dedicated to this goal. We take practical research on real manufacturing processes to the next level. The aim is to enable manufacturing companies, and also machine and plant manufacturers, to serve the market with new products much earlier.
Here Topic TruSt collaborates with our collegues of the Fraunhofer IOSB to make the production of the future secure against cyber attacks.
KD2Lab

The KD²Lab is one of the world’s largest infrastructures for research on human behavior and decision-making, offering a highly controlled setting and advanced sensor technology for rigorous, interdisciplinary experiments.
Test Area Autonomous Driving BW

The Test Field Autonomous Driving Baden-Württemberg is a laboratory with real conditions for testing mobility concepts. It aims to promote the development of future-oriented solutions for individual transport and local public transport.
Companies and researchers can test their technologies and services for networked and automated driving in everyday traffic. With automated cars, buses or commercial vehicles such as street cleaning or delivery services.
