Industry-academia engagement event for the University of Cambridge's new Sustainable Energy Materials (SEM) PhD Programme

Carbon dioxide removal from the atmosphere is now thought by many to be essential to limit climate change. This online panel discussion will explore “direct air capture” of carbon dioxide – a technology where ambient air is filtered to remove this greenhouse gas.

Evidence-based public policy decisions are frequently made with the support of academic research outputs. Due to the pressing nature of decarbonisation targets, coupled with the recent change in UK government, we can expect a flurry of implementation decisions to be made in the coming months and years.

This multidisciplinary panel aims to address the technical and logistical challenges associated with the design of heat networks. Understanding planning laws is essential for integrating district energy networks within existing and future city infrastructures, ensuring minimal disruption and maximum efficiency.

Join us for an informative session on improving rapid energy storage in supercapacitors and complex aqueous systems with machine learning.

Join us for the journey of batteries from university labs to the real-world!

Built Environment SIG online panel discussion: How we can speed up retrofit from multi-sector perspectives

The session will focus on "speeding up retrofit: what more needs to be done?” - we’ll explore:

Collaboration event between Cambridge Zero and the Decarbonisation Network

The purpose of this event is to identify what Cambridge has to offer in the context of ‘decarbonising fuels’ research, where there are gaps in knowledge and where there is potential for collaboration (internally and externally).
