The University of Ljubljana, founded in 1919, is the oldest and largest higher education and scientific research institution in Slovenia. Two faculties, the Faculty of Electrical Engineering and the Faculty of Mechanical Engineering, are actively engaged in the INDY project.

ULJ-FE operates a dynamic research team specializing in areas like cybersecurity, 5G, IoT, public safety, critical infrastructures, and advanced communication systems. ULJ-FS includes two departments: the Laboratory for Refrigeration and District Energy, which focuses on applied research in refrigeration, heat pumping, thermal management, and district energy; and the Laboratory for Internal Combustion Engines and Electromobility, a globally recognized center for research in combustion, batteries, fuel cells, and energy systems modeling using numerical and experimental approaches.

Role in the INDY project

ULJ-FE will provide a comprehensive cybersecurity approach for the military's microgrid energy system, ensuring security and interoperability. ULJ-FS will identify, benchmark, and simulate energy technologies for military camps.
