2nd EU-Solaris Doctoral Colloquium and 1st EU-Solaris Summer School

2nd-6th June 2025, Hotel Nuevo Torreluz – Almería – Spain

 

EU-Solaris is once again organizing the Doctoral Colloquium after the success of last year’s edition.

The 2nd Doctoral Colloquium of EU-Solaris will take place from June 2nd (9 AM) to June 4th (7 PM).

This event will be hosted by CIEMAT-Plataforma Solar de Almería (Spain).

The EU-SOLARIS Doctoral Colloquium aims to bring together PhD candidates in training to share cutting-edge knowledge in concentrating solar thermal technologies and their applications while exploring the facilities of the partner institutions. This event also provides an opportunity for PhD candidates to present their research to world experts and connect with colleagues working in the same field.

This year, the 1st EU-SOLARIS Summer School will also take place from June 5th (9:00 AM) to June 6th (2:30 PM). This event will be hosted by CIEMAT-Plataforma Solar de Almería (PSA). (Meet our speakers)
