Education has a hugely important role to play in helping tackling climate change and driving the transition to a green energy continent. Challenges in transition develop rapidly, with a high demand for digital and green.
Sustainable Energy Education (SEED) appreciates the need to distil relevant information that is useful for the Centres of Vocational Excellence about issues of skills supply and demand. Therefore, throughout the project’s lifecycle the main focus will be on:
Investment in skills which are key to realising the clean energy transition.
Linking current concerns, recording good practices, and promoting knowledge exchange among the participating regions in order to develop strategic priorities tailored to their regional needs.
The Good Practice is part of the project study Bobby Sharing. We search for more sustainable solutions for Light Electric Vehicles (LEV) in shared use in urban areas as an alternative to fossil-fueled individual mobility. Especially in dense areas like the Ruhr area there is a great need for space-efficient and environmentally friendly mobility concepts with respect to the climate crisis and the available space in cities. Students learn technical skills (such as programming, electrical engineering, solar related knowledge), design skills (arrangement of parts inside and outside of the EnergyHub) and practical skills (hands-on experience when repairing or replacing parts).
