CA25106 - Silent and Low-frequency Renewable Energy Systems for a Sustainable Future (STILLNESS)

The objective of STILLNESS Cost Action is to form a network of excellence within the framework of renewable energy, maximizing production in static or quasi static conditions i.e. on systems with minimal or no parts moving mechanically. The project will cover the complete energy system from the primary source of energy, up to the production of electricity or cooling as well as storage systems. The program is oriented especially towards young scientists and engineers with the objective to create a permanent structure focused on green energy, complying to the objectives of the Paris COP 21 regarding the reduction of greenhouse gases. It is important to convince future generations of scientists to engage in this area which is crucial for controlling the planet’s climate.

The impacts of the project can be stated in terms of: first, the training of PhD students to create a cohort of new actors in science in field of renewable energy sources. Secondly, the dissemination of knowledge. Thus, publications which could be estimated at two per year by each of the partners will be produced at least. Thirdly, to create a space for discussion common to all partners aimed at sharing scientific aspects and supporting the organizational phase, which will mainly concern public events such as conferences and workshops.
