We are pleased to announce the next Energy Seminar of the University of Luxembourg. The topic this time will be Flexibility for the Energy System of the Future and deals with integrating intermittent energy sources through advances in materials for renewable production and storage, as well as advances in information processing to enable new business models. We are very happy to welcome Professor Ferdi Schüth, Director of the Max-Planck-Institut für Kohlenforschung (in Germany), as our guest speaker. His view on challenges for scientists and engineers will be complemented by Professor Nils Löhndorf from the Luxembourg Centre for Logistics and Supply Chain Management (LCL) with challenges for investors and industry.

PLEASE NOTE: This event will be held in hybrid mode. Participants can choose to participate in-person (spaces limited - first come, first served) or online. Please choose your preference when registering.
