Science Figured Out: How can we make renewable energy flow through Europe?
Science Figured Out lures young scientists out of their familiar lab or office and places them in front of a camera with a clear assignment: tell the general public about your research in a clear 3-minute pitch! Some researchers connected to EnergyVille also took part.
Michiel Kenis' research on a better integration of renewable energy
The production of renewable energy has increased significantly in recent years. But the sun doesn’t always shine as brightly, nor does the wind always blow. Fortunately, we can exchange electricity between different countries. This way, Germany can benefit from the Spanish sun and Spain from the German wind. But international trade doesn’t always work like that… Michiel Kenis (EnergyVille/KU Leuven/VITO) explains why and what he is trying to do about it in this video.
