The Wuselwerk offers all current and former employees and scholarship holders of the RLS and the RLI a place for exchange and networking. Many of us feel a lasting connection to our common goals. Whether in science or research, whether in associations, administration and companies or even in the private sphere - many of us want to continue to work, in small and large ways, for the 100% renewable energy supply that Reiner Lemoine once advocated.
More about the members of the Wuselwerk can be found here:
1978: Foundation of the collective Wuseltronik
1979: Diploma in Space Technology, TU Berlin
1996: Founding
1999: FoundingThe board members of the Reiner Lemoine Foundation work on an honorary basis. The board of directors acts as a decision-making body and the board of trustees as a consultative body.
The members of the board of directors and of the board of trustees are companions and family members of Reiner Lemoine. They feel closely connected with his achievements and his attitude towards life and they are committed to his visions. They are largely self-employed as innovative entrepreneurs or engaged in renewable energy research.
The scholarship program forms the backbone of RLS activities. Since 2007, almost 100 doctoral candidates have received scholarships from the foundation or are currently receiving funding. The scholarship holders have in common that they all work or have worked on topics in the field of renewable energy. Since 2020, the program will be continued in the form of an RLS graduate school.
Reiner Lemoine in the context of the founding of the RLS in 2006
2006: The Reiner Lemoine Foundation was founded before the death of Reiner Lemoine with goals to promote science and research in the field of energy and to achieve 100% renewable energy.
2007: With the foundation, the scholarship program of the RLS was started. From 2007, the first eleven scholarship holders received funding for their doctorate.
2010: With the founding of the Reiner Lemoine Institute an independent research institution was to be created. Today, the RLI runs extensive activities in research and consultancy on energy and transport topics. It has become well-known and recognized across professional boundaries.
2018: In the tradition of its founder and namesake, the RLS considers entrepreneurial innovation an additional important contribution to the energy transition. The Foundation is therefore delighted with Localiser , the first energy transition spin-off from RLI projects.
2019: Some 12 years after it was established, the Reiner Lemoine Foundation has repositioned itself and its programmes and sharpened the content of its activities by focusing on topics related to the energy system transition.
2020: The scholarship programme is converted to a graduate school.
2021: The RLS celebrates its 15th anniversary.
