The EU Funding Academy is launching a new round of its online training
series “Mastering EU Projects” this June. The programme offers
practical, in-depth guidance for professionals involved in EU-funded
projects, covering key aspects from project implementation to proposal
development.
The training consists of four modules: Project Management,
Communication, Dissemination and Exploitation, Financial Management, and
Horizon Europe Proposal Writing. Each module combines theoretical input
with practical exercises and can be booked individually or as a full
series.

New PV Academy Recording Available
The tutorial “Degradation and Reliability of PV Modules”, led by Dr
David Moser (Becquerel Institute) and Dr Teresa Barnes (NREL), provides
an introduction to how photovoltaic modules degrade over time and how
their reliability can be analysed and assessed.
The session connects scientific fundamentals with practical approaches,
covering key degradation mechanisms, accelerated durability testing,
diagnostic techniques, and modelling methods to understand and predict
performance losses.
This and other recordings are now available free of charge on the PV Academy website.

 | Shape the EU PVSEC 2026 Programme and Connect with the PV Community
There is still an opportunity to contribute to the EU PVSEC 2026
programme. Late abstracts are being accepted, offering researchers and
experts the possibility to present their latest results and insights in
the field of photovoltaics. In addition, organisations can submit
proposals for Parallel Events and engage with a diverse international
audience from research, industry, finance, and policy. The exhibition
also offers a platform to showcase solutions, strengthen market
presence, and connect with key stakeholders across the PV sector.
Take the opportunity to contribute to the programme, exchange ideas, and be part of the European PV community.

Advancing Energy Applications for Biomass Pyrolysis Products
The PYRAGRAF project has released its 5th press release, highlighting
recent progress in exploring energy applications of biomass pyrolysis
products. The update focuses on how by-products such as pyrogas and
bio-oil can be used as renewable energy carriers, supporting more
sustainable agricultural and forestry systems. By converting
agricultural and forestry residues into valuable products, the project
aims to reduce greenhouse gas emissions while strengthening local
circular bioeconomies.

ICARUS Co-creation Workshop at EUBCE 2026
An ICARUS Co-creation Workshop will be organised on 21 May 2026 in The
Hague on the occasion of the 34th European Biomass Conference and
Exhibition (EUBCE 2026). This workshop aims to support the development
of best practices and concepts across the entire value chain for three
technological pathways - biocrude oils to SAF, alcohols/isobutanol to
SAF, and syngas to SAF - to accelerate the scale-up of SAF production
worldwide.

BioRECAST Workshop at EUBCE 2026
A workshop on "Defossilizing the European steel sector"
will be organised on 20 May 2026 in The Hague on the occasion of the
34th European Biomass Conference and Exhibition (EUBCE 2026). This
workshop is organised in the framework of the projects BioRECAST and H2Steel.
This workshop will serve to present and discuss activities and results
of the two European projects BioRECAST and H2Steel aiming to find
promising solutions for the defossilization of the steel sector based on
renewable carbon and green hydrogen. Cooperation will be established
with IEA Bioenergy Task 33:
Gasification of Biogenic and Waste Feedstocks for a Sustainable Future
and the IRENA initiative on Decarbonising Hard-to-Abate Sectors. |

Meet GENDER4POWER Shine on ambassadors
A new LinkedIn series has been launched by the GENDER4POWER project: Meet the Shine On Ambassadors!
In this series, the individuals selected as GENDER4POWER Ambassadors are
being introduced. Across the six project demonstrator regions, two
ambassadors have been selected in each location for their strong
community engagement, local knowledge and networks.
The first two ambassadors have already been introduced, sharing their
motivation to join the programme and their commitment to supporting
inclusive, community-driven solutions to tackle energy poverty.
Discover the first ambassador posts and stay tuned to meet the rest of the GENDER4POWER ambassadors. |
