The Engineering and Physical Sciences Research Council (EPSRC) will be hosting an engineering net zero week from 20 to 24 June.
The EPSRC engineering net zero week will showcase EPSRC-funded research that address the challenges linked to meeting 2050 net zero strategic targets.
The week’s activities will be focussed through four thematic areas:
- towards net zero energy
- solutions for a greener industry and urbanisation
- our green future
- delivering zero emissions transport and mobility solutions.
A highlight of the engineering net zero week is a physical showcase event taking place 21 to 23 June in the new Advanced Research Centre at the University of Glasgow.
