Web Dashboard

Karlsruhe Institute of Technology (KIT) participates in the RF2.0 proejct with KARA, the Karlsruhe Research Accelerator and the Energy Lab, forming the new research infrastructure KITTEN (→ ibpt.kit.edu/kitten), which aims to improve energy efficiency and sustainability in accelerators.
In this context, KIT has developed an online energy dashboard that provides an overview of real-time energy consumption at Karlsruhe Research Accelerator (KARA).
