“Renewable Energy” stands as a key Innovation Area within the GAEA (Green Alternatives for European Autonomy) Open Innovation Program!
This area focuses on the exploration, development, and implementation of renewable energy sources (RES) like solar, wind, hydro, and biomass. The aim is to reduce dependence on fossil fuels, lower greenhouse gas emissions, and create a more sustainable and resilient energy landscape.
In this Innovation Area, we delve into challenges such as enhancing the efficiency of renewable energy technologies, integrating them seamlessly into existing energy systems, and innovating in energy storage solutions to overcome intermittency issues. The objective is to foster a holistic approach to renewable energy, considering not only technological advancements but also socio-economic and environmental impacts.
The transition to renewable energy is more than an environmental imperative; it’s an opportunity to innovate, create sustainable jobs, and build a resilient energy infrastructure. This Innovation Area embodies the commitment to a future where energy is clean, abundant, and accessible to all, aligning with GAEA’s mission of fostering sustainable development and energy independence.
This Innovation Area is addressed to:
- Individuals from Business, Finance, Marketing, Technology, and Engineering academic sectors studying or recently completed their studies (up to four years) in any European University
- Researchers and/or Ph.D. students in any relevant to the Innovation Areas science fields from any European University
who have or want to develop an innovative idea for Renewable Energy.
