The Research Center for Energy Economics (FfE) is a non-profit organization with members representing the disciplines of Energy Technology and Utilization, Industry, Science and Administration as well as private individuals (approximately 150 members). The FfE was established as a neutral scientific research institute, having no preference for any source of competitive energy carrier. The organization employs a scientific approach to address issues concerning power engineering, energy technology and economy and their impacts on our environment. With a staff of about 20 employees, the FfE is one of a few institutes to perform detailed metrological analyses in both laboratories and field tests. It evaluates the test results with a view to improve the practical aspects of theoretical and statistical system analyses.

These objectives are achieved by the following methods:

• Initiating, supporting and conducting research projects
• Working on national and international joint ventures with universities, scientists and other research institutes at both home and abroad
• Post-graduate courses
• Delivering training programs
• Running lecture series
• Circulating publications on FfE's research work.

The Research Center for Energy Economics is an authorized partner to the public utility industry and also to developers involved in all fields of energy generation, distribution and application.
