The European Union is leading the efforts for clean energy aiming to reduce its gas emissions by 80-95% by the year 2050. This will bring important changes to the long-term structure of energy systems, the “energy transition” as its widely known.
This year’s Barcelona Energy Days, organised by UPC BarcelonaTech University, the Government of Catalonia, the municipalities of Barcelona and Sant Adrià de Besòs and Fusion for Energy, will focus on different ways to achieving this important target. A sustainable energy mix is the answer for the future and Europe is at the forefront of developing one of the most promising long-term options— fusion power.
The Conference will take place at the Campus Diagonal Besòs of UPC on 19 June 2018, starting at 9h30. Professionals, experts and EU representatives will debate about the right strategy for the energy transition.
This is the first edition of the Barcelona Energy days, organised in the framework of the EU Sustainable Energy Days, an initiative of the European Commission.
