EEETHOS 3rd General Assembly Held in Zittau, Germany
The EEETHOS consortium gathered in Zittau, Germany, on 3-4 December 2025 for the project’s 3rd General Assembly, hosted by the German Aerospace Center (DLR). Representatives from all partner organisations joined the two-day meeting, which combined technical updates, operational discussions, and hands-on insights into the project’s ongoing developments.
Sharing progress across all demonstrators
The meeting opened with a project overview from DTI, followed by detailed status reports from all five industrial demonstrators:
- Asphalt Demonstrator (DTI)
- Roof tiles Demonstrator (CERTH)
- Pulp & Paper Demonstrator (DLR)
- Bricks Demonstrator (CEE)
- Steel Demonstrator (Tekniker)
Partners presented the latest advancements, challenges, and next steps, reflecting strong progress across the project. Discussions also covered the cross-cutting elements of EEETHOS, including the communication, dissemination and exploitation efforts, technology optimisation, and environmental and economic impact assessment.
Welcoming a new partner: Pirobloc
The consortium was pleased to welcome Pirobloc as a new partner in EEETHOS. The company will play a key role in the steel demonstrator, contributing expertise essential for the next stage of the technology development and integration.
Visit to DLR’s steam compression test centre
On the second day, the consortium visited the DLR test centre in Zittau, where partners had the opportunity to see the steam compression systems being developed for the roof tiles demonstrator. The tour offered a valuable look at the experimental setup and the advances achieved by the DLR team.
Strengthening collaboration
The General Assembly once again demonstrated the strong cooperation across the EEETHOS consortium. Constructive discussions and productive exchanges helped partners align on upcoming milestones and ensure coordinated progress for the next phases of the project.
The project extends its thanks to DLR for hosting the meeting and to all partners for their continued commitment to advancing high-temperature electrification and industrial waste heat recovery in Europe.
