ETIP PV – call for experts
The European Technology and Innovation platform for
Photovoltaics is calling for new experts in 4 of its
working groups:
|
TRACER project at COP27
The
TRACER project
took part in the COP27 event. objective of this online
side-event was to share and discuss the learnings from
different EU-funded research and implementation
projects (TRACER, Tipping +, Cintran, Entrances) on
how to accelerate the just energy transitions in Coal
and Carbon Intensive Regions (CCIRs) towards greener
and more inclusive societies. |
MUSIC publishes Pyrolysis White Paper
 |
The
MUSIC project
supports market uptake of three types of IBCs
by developing feedstock mobilisation
strategies, improved cost-effective logistics
and trade centres. The investigated IBCs
include pyrolysis oil, torrefied biomass and
microbial oil.
Always wanted to know what fast pyrolysis of
biomass is and how it can be useful?

SocialRES project coming to an end
The SocialRES project
is finishing in December, after almost 4 years of activity aiming to
foster energy democracy through social innovation and the active
collaboration between cooperatives, aggregators of renewable energy and
crowdfunding platforms. The project has provided a relevant contribution
to answer how to start an energy transition, developed the European Energy Social Innovation Platform to empower and support professionals in the renewable energy sector and produced a Policy Brief
with a set of recommendations for EU policymakers on how to better
harness and support social innovation for energy transitions. In the
last days of the project, many results will be released on the website. Stay tuned!

SERENDI-PV’s 4th General Assembly in Ulm, Germany
The 4th General Assembly of the
SERENDI-PV
project took place in the premises of
Technische Hochschule Ulm, Germany, on 28-29
November. Project partners shared their
current activities, discussed project progress
and next steps. SERENDI-PV
has the aim of improving the lifetime,
reliability, performance & profitability
of PV generation and increasing the
penetration of PV generation in the European
grid with improved stability.
|  |
The project started in October 2020 and will end in
October 2024. Follow the project’s social media
accounts on
LinkedIn
and
Twitter
to keep up with the latest developments of
SERENDI-PV.

Kicking off the working group on Energy Efficiency and
Buildings
 |
The Coordination and Support Action (CSA) to
support to the Implementation Working Group on
Energy Efficiency in Buildings ( IWG5) has started its activities on 1 September
2022.
|
The aim of
IWG5
is to set out the measures required to achieve the
energy efficiency targets in the building sector,
identify ongoing projects, and propose new
activities.
IWG5 members are composed of representatives of EU
countries and associated countries, industrial
stakeholders, non-governmental organizations, and
research institutes. WIP Renewable Energies is one of
the partners of the Coordination and Support Action
(CSA) within the IWG5 and responsible for organizing
annual study tours which aims to educate and inform
the public about energy-efficient buildings and
understand the related societal drivers.

Kick-off of the new Horizon Europe project IBC4EU online
4 Nov and onsite 23 Nov in Konstanz, Germany
The IBC4EU project, formed by 21 partners (17
funded, 4 associated), will develop cost
effective and sustainable bifacial
interdigitated back contact (IBC) solar cell
and module technology on pilot line level; and
is coordinated by the International Solar
Energy Research center Konstanz ISC EV (ISC
Konstanz).

SUPER PV coming to an end
After almost 5 years the
SUPER PV project
has come to an end. In November, the third and last
review meeting was held in Morocco. In this context,
the project partners visited the Ouarzazate demo site
located at Masen facilities, where SUPER PV
technologies are being tested in extremely hot and dry
desert climate. Also, the consortium had the chance to
visit the demo site situated at the Université
Mohammed V in Rabat.
The visit was held by Moroccan project partners,
Masen, MAScIR and Université Mohammed V.
