Energy transition research event

When:Tu 16-04-2024 14:00 - 17:30
Where:Energy Academy Europe, Nijenborgh 6, 9747 AG Groningen

On Tuesday 16th of April a new research event organised by the Wubbo Ockels School for Energy and Climate and New Energy Coalition will take place in Groningen. Please save the date in your agenda for now and find the tentative programme below. A link to register will follow in due time.

After the informative first part on research support opportunities, we will divide into different groups where you’ll be asked to brainstorm with your UG and NEC colleagues on potential projects connected to the themes listed; and share the ideas with the session participants. This gives a chance to meet colleagues and initiate new collaborations. Based on the outcomes of the brainstorm sessions, we will further look into the possibilities of writing a project proposal and/or connecting other actors from our combined network to certain ideas. Input to the programme is still welcome.
