FUTURE PROJECS:

Learning on Internet
For the transition to a solar energy economy, the training of users, planners, installers, and political decision-makers is extremely important - especially in developing countries, whose wealth in sunlight means solar energy can provide a major portion of the energy supply in the expansion of the energy infrastructure. The solar server will offer appropriate correspondence courses in the Internet.

Virtual tour
By wandering through the virtual building in the solar server, potentially interested parties and users of the ISC from all over the world will be able to "experience” and discover the SolarCenter even before construction is completed.

Computer game
From mid-September 1996 on, the Server will provide access to a computer game on the topic of energy and environment.
