Submit your Climate Action or Energy Paper of 2022

15 januari 2023 00:00 - Locatie: The Green Village CCC | Zet in mijn agenda

The climate and energy transition is a crucial weapon in the fight against climate change – societies biggest challenge. Only if we reach carbon neutrality by 2050 will we be able to mitigate the effects of climate change. But at the current pace, we will not get there in thirty years’ time. While it is imperative to limit climate change as much as we can, we will also have to learn to adapt to new circumstances and identify the policies needed to make the solutions sustainable. 

With around a thousand scientists, TU Delft is one of Europe’s largest research institutes in the field of climate action and energy. But of course, we do not do this alone. We work together with partners in the field labs on the TU Delft Campus, with companies, policymakers, business developers, and social scientists from all over Europe. And, of course, with you!
