The Science Circle series is a joint initiative of the German Embassy in Canberra and the Australian Embassy in Berlin to promote mutual understanding of each country’s research landscape, encourage discussion and provide a base for future collaboration.

With the energy transition or Energiewende, the German government aims to secure a “reliable, economically viable and environmentally sound energy supply”.

Prof Andreas Löschel (Director, Centre of Applied Economic Research Münster & Chair, Energy Expert Commission of the German Government) will provide the key note address, “Germany’s Energy Transition – Challenges and Perspectives”, at the Science Circle event being held in Canberra on August 27th. 

RDA Hunter has been invited to attend the event to represent the Hunter region.
