Researchers planning to apply for a European Research Council (ERC) Advanced Grant are invited to participate in the webinar “Towards an ERC Advanced Grant: from groundbreaking idea to successful proposal”. The event is organized by ERC National Contact Points as part of the “mERCury” project.
During the seminar, participants will learn how to formulate an innovative ERC research idea and gain a better understanding of the ERC proposal evaluation process. The programme includes discussions and presentations on the concept of ERC frontier research, as well as an overview of the ERC evaluation procedure.
ERC Advanced Grant holders from different scientific domains—Social Sciences and Humanities (SH), Physical Sciences and Engineering (PE), and Life Sciences (LS)—will also share their experiences. Representatives of the European Research Council Executive Agency (ERCEA) and members of ERC evaluation panels will take part in the event.

Nordic Energy Research welcomes everyone interested in Baltic-Nordic energy research and cooperation to the Baltic-Nordic Energy Research Conference. The conference is open to the public and will bring together all researchers involved in the Joint Baltic-Nordic Energy Research Programme, providing a unique opportunity to meet other researchers and energy sector stakeholders in the Baltic-Nordic region.
Facing several similar challenges in their future energy systems, the Joint Baltic-Nordic Energy Research Programme has inspired intra-Nordic and intra-Baltic energy research for eight years. Now, we would like to invite you to celebrate the results of nearly a decade of Baltic-Nordic Energy Research collaboration.

The Baltic-Nordic Energy Research Programme
To mark the longevity of the Nordic Baltic collaboration, the conference will promote research and policy results from previous Calls. The programme has funded nine unique Baltic-Nordic Energy projects within the following thematic scope:
Decarbonisation of the transport sector
Energy Efficiency in buildings and industries
Energy system analysis
Challenges and opportunities for regional electricity grids
Furthermore, programme has funded the following reports centred on Baltic-Nordic cooperation in energy and energy research:
Baltic-Nordic Roadmap for Co-operation on Clean Energy Technologies (2022)
Heat Pump Potential in the Baltic States (2021)
Transport Statistical Data and Projections in The Baltic States (2020)

Fostering EU Clean Energy transition in Lithuania, SUPEERA/PANTERA workshop
Date: 27 April 2023
Time: 9:00 – 17:00
Location: Lithuanian Academy of Science, Gedimino pr. 3, 01103 Vilnius, Lithuania
Lithuania is actively working towards the success of the energy transition objectives and implementation of declared policies for achieving the low carbon economy. Yet, together with other less involved countries it shows low participation rates in research and innovation (R&I) activities and the realisation of the European Union’s Strategic Energy Technology (SET) Plan Implementation Plans. As a consequence, and compared to more successful Member States it has received only a marginal contribution of EU R&I Horizon 2020’s budget.
In this context, SUPEERA and PANTERA are joining forces with the objective to enhance collaboration in R&I activities in Lithuania, facilitate knowledge exchange and showcase best practices of how international networking and cooperation between national stakeholders and key international associations and organisations can be beneficial for establishing long-lasting interactions and fostering joint R&I activities.
Therefore, this workshop will offer a detailed overview of the European policies, strategies, EU funding programmes and collaboration opportunities at the disposal to the research community of Lithuania with the aim to bringing them closer to the R&I activities of Europe and get active with the SET Plan process. Meanwhile, the invited experts and stakeholders will share their experience in the project implementation.
Discussion Topics
NB: The detailed agenda will be sent to all registrants in due time
Registrations are open at this link. In case of further questions or information needed, please do not hesitate to contact s.pantelis@eera-set.eu
