Online training: RENEWABLE ENERGIES, ENERGY EFFICIENCY and CLIMATE CHANGE

The Consortium of universities (CIVIS) is organizing in collaboration with the ECOWAS Centre for Renewable Energy and Energy Efficiency (ECREEE), the Africa, Mediterranean, and Europe Jean Monnet Network, EU (AMENET) and CERMI, a five days online renewable energy training/research workshop, which will take place on the week of 18^th to 22^nd, October 2021.

The objective is to train and do research in response to the energy transition faced by the EU, the Mediterranean & Sub-Saharan region in Africa, and the need to mitigate the effects of climate change. This target implies to reduce the daunting energy deficit and promote renewable energies and energy efficiency in the region given its large and diverse potential of renewable energy sources (solar, wind, ocean, biomass, biofuels, green hydrogen, etc.). Building the capacity of the EU, Mediterranean& Sub-Saharan African stakeholders on renewable energy and energy efficiency issues is key to achieving this vision.
