That's what it's about:

With the energy turnaround, the German government has set itself an ambitious goal, the achievement of which will require a fundamental transformation of our energy systems. As a traditional center for lignite mining and power generation, Lusatia is challenged to reposition itself. The Energy Innovation Center (EIZ) at the BTU addresses this challenge both on a global and regional level by accompanying the global transformation of the energy sector and thereby (co-)establishing and (co-)securing regional technology leadership for science and industry as well as the start-up competence of Lusatia. The focus is on the selective networking of the various energy systems and sectors as well as the different system actors and a direct promotion of innovation and start-up activities in Lusatia.

The German Federal Ministry of Education and Research is funding the EIZ in an initial phase over a period of four years with around 25.5 million euros. At the same time, novel laboratory infrastructures worth a further 18.5 million euros are to be funded by the Investment Bank of the State of Brandenburg (ILB). Over a period of ten years, the further development of the EIZ into a powerful and innovative network is to be financed with a total of 96 million euros.
