Oxford Energy Day
Do you work in research fields that explore the environment? Are you interested in developing collaborations and partnerships with others who share your interests both from within the University and beyond?
If so, the Oxford Environment Networks (including networks on Climate, Energy, Food, Biodiversity and Water), might be of interest. See - http://www.one.ox.ac.uk/
These networks operate across Oxford and beyond and help researchers to broker new and exciting academic and non-academic collaborations and partnerships via events and seminars. The Oxford Energy Network are holding one such event on 2 October which may be of interest:

Energy in Growing Economies
According to BP’s 2017 Energy Outlook, energy use in non-OECD countries is expected to increase by some 50% and make up over two-thirds of global energy consumption by 2035. This is lifting billions out of poverty, and underwriting the achievement of the millennium goals. How this increase is achieved, and whether it can be accelerated, is not only of interest for OECD countries. Opportunities to develop new models for providing energy uninhibited by existing infrastructure may provide lessons for others.
This event will bring together international speakers to discuss challenges and opportunities for growing economies.
