Climate science and the energy transformation: challenges and opportunities (Professor David Brayshaw, University of Reading)
Tuesday 24 June 2025 at15:00-16:00, DYNAMICUM Aqua 1A13c
Energy systems around the world are undergoing rapid and far-reaching change. From the electrification of transport and heating, through to the growing dependence on renewables and increasing weather-exposure of infrastructure, there is an urgent need for high-quality weather and climate information across all time scales to support the energy transition. While much progress has been made over the last 10-15 years, there remain many areas of “disconnect” between energy- and climate- science that need to be addressed to enable deeper exchanges of ideas, data and know-how. This presentation will outline some of the questions, challenges and opportunities involved.
FUNDING OPPORTUNITIES
The Jane and Aatos Erkko Foundation
The Jane and Aatos Erkko Foundation accepts grant applications every day of the year. There are no separate application times.

(In Finnish) Marjatta ja Eino Kollin Säätiö
Säätiön tehtävänä on tukea tieteellistä sekä soveltavaa tutkimusta ja kehitystyötä myöntämällä apurahoja hankkeiden toteuttajille. Säätiö tarjoaa mahdollisuuksia yksittäisille tutkijoille ja kehittäjille sekä tutkimus-/ kehittäjäryhmille. Haasteena on ruokkia nimenomaan sellaista kehitystä, jolla olisi elinympäristömme kannalta positiivista vaikutusta pitkällä tähtäimellä. Apurahojen hakuaika on jatkuva.
(På svenska) Svenska tekniska vetenskapsakademien i Finland (STV)
Akademien utdelar stipendier för verksamhet vars syfte sammanfaller med Akademiens. Stipendier kan beviljas enskild sökande med avlagd akademisk slutexamen. Stipendier kan sökas kontinuerligt under året och beslut görs kvartalsvis.
- Stipendier till stöd för vetenskapen
- Stipendier i första hand för kortare forskningsvistelser
