Fraunhofer CSE Receives Visit from Mass. State Legislators

Yesterday, we were honored to receive a visit from Senator Anthony Petruccelli, Senator Sal DiDomenico, Representative Tim Toomey, and Liam Holland of the office of Representative John Keegan.

Our guests heard from Fraunhofer CSE Managing Director Nolan Browne and Scientific Director Christian Hoepfner, and received a tour of our solar PV and building energy laboratories. (Photos here.)

We also discussed our plans for expansion in Massachusetts, including our new advanced R&D facility (under construction), job growth, and workforce development initiatives.

Many thanks to the legislators and their staff for visiting!
