ECR Net Zero Conference

Activity: Academic conferences and events (excluding conference publications)Major conference organising role

Description

The ECR Net Zero Conference in 2024 was a collaboration with many organisations working in the Net Zero space – C-DICE, CO2RE, EDI+, EDRC, ERA, IDRIC, IGNITE+, HI-ACT, Supergen Bioenergy Hub, SUSTAIN, TFI Network+, UKERC and UK-HyRES!

The conference took place at the Birmingham Conference and Events Centre (Birmingham, B5 4EW), on Tuesday 27th – Wednesday 28th February 2024. It provided an opportunity for ECRs to meet and network with peers from different research organisations within the wider net zero research community, and build a more collaborative, multidisciplinary community.

The two days included a mix of keynote speakers, parallel sessions (skills and topic based) and a networking dinner. New to this year’s conference was the opportunity to present your work in our poster reception to stimulate discussion and find potential collaborative research pathways with fellow ECRs.

My role was on the organisation committee and the early career researcher steering board, and as an invited speaker, presenting on the wider UK-HyRES hub.
