about
The “Energy Systems of the Future” event is organised by INESC TEC to present a set of R&D solutions that will contribute to materialize the vision of energy systems with 100% renewable energy, through a combination of new technology, market schemes and intelligent computational solutions. Additionally, a panel session composed by energy experts from industry and associations will discuss R&D challenges for the future energy systems.
This event is powered by the Energy Days Initiative organised every year by the European Commission within the scope of the Sustainable Energy Week. Organised by local public and private organisations, Energy Days are activities and events that promote clean energy transition.
