The FOM Foundation has reached agreement with Bogor Projectontwikkeling B.V. and Green Real Estate B.V. about the sale of the Rijnhuizen estate in Nieuwegein. The transfer of the estate will take place in 2016. Up until the start of May 2015 the FOM Institute for Fundamental Energy Research DIFFER was located on the estate.

Op 11 mei 2015 is DIFFER verhuisd naar zijn nieuwe gebouw op het TU/e Science Park. In zijn duurzame nieuwbouw heeft het instituut de ruimte om uit te breiden met nieuwe onderzoeksgroepen en experimenten.
