The European Energy Centre (EEC) was created in 1975 and its focus is renewable energy training and conference delivery in order to create a much needed workforce capable of installing, repairing and maintaining renewable energy equipment.[1]
The European Energy Centre and Centro Studi Galileo work with the United Nations Environment Programme[2][3] (UNEP)[4] the Intergovernmental International Institute of Refrigeration[5] and Centro Studi Galileo,[6] along with leading Universities such as Edinburgh Napier University and Heriot-Watt University in promoting the use of renewable energy technologies across the United Kingdom.
The European Energy Centre is also active European-wide[7] with conferences in refrigeration, air conditioning and renewable energy, specifically Heating and Cooling technologies, see the 14th European Conference at Heriot-Watt University, Edinburgh.[8]
The training activities of the European Energy Centre and its parent company Centro Studi Galileo are also welcomed and promoted through their partners.[9][10]
The European Energy Centre is also active in India with training courses and conferences[11] with its Indian Partner TERRE Policy Centre.
Main activities of the organisation
- European conferences organised with the UN (UNEP) on the latest technologies in renewable energy[12]
- Publications with the United Nations Environment Programme
- Promotion of best practices in renewable energy through training technicians and personnel
- Launching the Green New Deal in Europe and India
