UiO:Energy and Environment would like to invite master students and PhDs working on energy, environment and sustainability, to present their research projects at the SDG Conference on February 8, 2023.

The new board of UiO:Energy and Environment had its first board meeting on December 15th. The board decided to continue the initiative's open funding schemes within internationalization, research and education, ensuring that there will be no interruption in these funding mechanisms.

HYDROGENi and HyValue officially launched their activities at a kick-off event in Oslo on October 5th. They are both new centres for environment-friendly energy research (FME) which will help strengthen Norway's research efforts on hydrogen and ammonia over the next eight years.
