Energy Transition Research Event


Wubbo Ockels School and New Energy Coalition
April 16

We cordially invite you to the research event on Tuesday 16 April, organised by the Wubbo Ockels School for Energy and Climate at Rijksuniveristeit Groningen and by New Energy Coalition. The event is for employees of both organisations. The event will start with an informative session on opportunities for research support. We will then break up into different groups where you will be asked to brainstorm with your colleagues about possible projects.  You will share the ideas with the session participants and get a chance to meet colleagues and initiate new collaborations. Based on the outcomes of the brainstorming sessions, we will further explore the possibilities of writing a project proposal and/or connecting other actors from our joint network to certain ideas.
