HighEFF Webinar series – celebrating one year
It is now a year since we launched the first HighEFF webinar, the 16th of February 2022. Since then, there have been 17 seminars giving HighEFF partners an opportunity to learn more about thermal energy storage technology, how to make the aluminum industry greener and heat pump technology for industrial applications, to mention just a few. The webinar series have been a success with good participation from our industry partners. On average, industry participation has been 34%.
|
For those of you not taking part in these webinars yet, there are still many more to come. The next one is about utilization of low temperature heat at Elkem Thamshavn, and will be presented by Bjørn Saugestad, the plant manager. The next five webinars are listed below.
|
The webinars will start at 11:30 with 20-30 minutes presentation of topics related to HighEFF's thematic areas and continue with questions and discussions until 12:30 at the latest.
|
|
Presenter, topic and description for each presentation will be updated in the webinar section of the HighEFF events page. If you missed some of the earlier webinars, they are recorded and available via the eRoom.
