Programme
French – NTU
Renewable Energy Workshop
4 - 6 February 2015, Singapore
Context
• Over the last years we have observed a substantial growth of
scientific collaboration between NTU and French partners in
fields associated with Renewable Energy Research and
Innovation.
• Important collaborations have developed between
NTU/ERI@N and French industrials in the framework of the
two flagships programs REIDS and ECOCAMPUS.
• Active joint PhD programs between NTU/ERIAN and CEA and
Grenoble INP in the domain of materials for energy.
Objective
• Have a brain storming workshop to identify possible Energy
R&D challenges that would greatly benefit from
complementary competences. Define some relative concrete
projects. Define the best framework for efficient collaboration.
Participants
• CNRS is leading the French delegation which comprises
scientists from CNRS, CEA, University Pierre et Marie Curie,
Grenoble INP, Centrale-Supelec, and a few other French
universities
• About 20 scientists, all renown experts, from France and as
much from NTU, Singapore
• French industrial partners (GDF-Suez, Bouygues, ALSTOM,
Peugeot PSA,…)
