Details

Nordic Energy Research is issuing a call for proposals for research projects under the joint Baltic-Nordic Energy Research program. Moreover, the aims of this Research Program is to promote energy research and analysis in the Baltic States. As well as it aims to inspire intra-Baltic and Baltic-Nordic collaboration.

The Paris Agreement, the EU’s goal of working towards a European Energy Union, as well as rapid changes in energy technology creates an international context where the Baltic States and the Nordic countries face several similar challenges regarding the future of their energy systems.

This international context and the ongoing integration of the electricity grid between the Baltic States and the Nordic countries means that there is a need for a regional perspective in the energy system and in the electricity sector specifically.

Thematic scope

The thematic scope of the Baltic-Nordic Energy Research Program focuses on one of the four key areas including:

  • Decarbonization of the transport sector
  • Energy efficiency in buildings and industry
  • Energy system analysis
  • Challenges and opportunities for regional electricity grids

The scope of the call covers technical/natural sciences and social science-based research on energy. These projects should aim to address research questions from a Baltic-Nordic perspective, and to focus on regional perspectives or to solve questions that will result in added Baltic-Nordic knowledge.
