The Scientific SOLAR SUMMER SCHOOL “4Sun 2020” is the first in a series of annual educational events designed to equip young researchers and PhD candidates with a pluridisciplinary understanding of the solar energy transition from the level of solar cells up to city-scale. The 4Sun scientific school is also a valuable networking opportunity with participants from other countries. Our unique Solar Campus, in the beautiful foothills of the French Alps, beside the largest natural lake in the country (Lac de Bourget), is ideal setting to meet international experts and young researchers from a range of disciplines.
The program comprises plenary sessions and thematic workshops. The plenaries cover the fields of Solar Cells Technology, Building Integration, Modelling and Data Sciences, Law and Public Policies, Economics and Business models.
The thematic workshops, organised in parallel sessions, will constitute in-depth classes of selected subjects. Among the topics include Solar Contracts, Experimental Assessments of Solar Cell Performance, Experimental Assessments of Solar Panels and System Performance, Modelling of Solar Resources in Cities, etc.
Participants are also invited to present a poster about their current research topic. The summer school will also include a visit of the extended experimental platform at INES (National Institute for Solar Energy), and rounds tables on career opportunities (Marie Curie fellowships) will be organised.
