10-11 February 2022: UK-India SUNRISE symposium on “Transition to NetZero”
Department of Sustainable Energy Engineering and Chandrakanta Kesavan Center for Energy Policy and Climate Solutions (CKCEPCS) co-organized the UK-India SUNRISE symposium on "Transition to NetZero" on 10-11 February 2022, virtually.
The theme for the symposium was "Transition to Net Zero" and it showcased technology development sessions on food, water, energy, and Net Zero.
Food, water and energy together make the foundation for socio-economic development and well-being, but also significantly contribute towards global warming and climate change, which raises the concern of environmental and ecological sustainability.
Food-Water-Energy-Climate Nexus with transition towards Net Zero will be an effective way to deal with these complicated issues, which would require an interplay of technological interventions, and dedicated efforts of multiple stakeholders including academicians, researchers, industries, and decision makers in this direction.
SUNRISE symposium explored, the linkages between water and hygiene, energy harvesting, energy systems, food production, and food security in the context of decarbonisation and Net zero through global collaboration of leading research teams and industries.
