Sci-ROI's next focused webinar will be on India's Quest Towards Energy Sustainability: Research Prospects and Career Opportunities.
Date: December 10, 2022, Saturday
Time: 7:30 PM - 9:00 PM, IST / 9:00 AM - 10:30 AM, EST
Sustainable energy is a crucial aspect of the global energy dilemma, as well as a crucial factor in human progress and activity. Sustainable energy is essential due to the enormous and expanding nature of energy use, the numerous environmental concerns associated with energy systems, and the importance of energy to living standards and economic progress. India has set a target of 450 GW of renewable energy output, a reduction in carbon intensity of less than 45% by the end of the decade, and carbon neutrality by 2070. Thus, sustainable energy will create enormous profits, particularly from new startup eco-systems, and provide numerous career opportunities for academic and industry research.
If you're an engineer or scientist attempting to break into India's sustainable energy research and startup ecosystem, join us to learn from renowned speakers across industry and academia from India.
