- Description
The 5th International Summer School on Solid Oxide Fuel Cells (SOFC) will be held on the Greek island of Crete in September 2008. Following the successful pattern of the previous summer schools carried out under the EU Integrated Project Real-SOFC, this year’s school will be organised as part of the EU Integrated Project LargeSOFC’s training and educational programme. This summer school is targeted at newcomers to the field and is suitable for students of graduate and PhD level. It is also helpful for young professionals, technicians and more experienced researchers wishing to review the basics of SOFC technology and expand their knowledge. It aims to provide a comprehensive introduction to SOFC science and technology from fundamental science, through the manufacture and test of cells and components to considering the economics and energy politics of the market today and the role of emerging new energy technologies. The school draws on the knowledge and expertise of a group of teachers currently working at the leading edge of SOFC research and development in Europe from universities, national research centres and industry.
