Project description
The RISEnergy project aims to connect and improve services offered by research centers working on energy technologies across Europe and associated countries. These centers focus on areas such as solar power (PV and CSP/STE), hydrogen, biofuels, wind and ocean energy, energy storage, smart grids. One key goal of the project is to create shared services that help move renewable energy technologies from early research to real-world use faster.
