The 4TU Centre for Energy strives to accelerate society’s transition to a carbon-neutral future by fostering connections within its energy community and leveraging their expertise. The centre accomplishes this by bringing together various scientific disciplines, including chemistry, mechanical engineering, computer science, electrical engineering, and more.
In 2023, I’ve had the pleasure of interviewing young, ambitious researchers, delving into their research, their ideas, motivations, and their perspectives on the energy transition as part of the ‘Meet our Energizer!’ series. Read the articles of the series here.
