On September 6, 2023, the energy research community met in Bern for the second SWEET conference. This provided a platform for exchange between energy research and implementation partners from the private sector, associations, cantons, cities, municipalities and the federal government.
At the SWEET conference, participants not only learned where the research of the current consortia stands.
- VR goggles were used to explore the energy supply in 2050 on a map of Switzerland
- An online game allowed participants to slip into the role of an energy supplier to experience how decisions affect the energy system
Dr. Gianfranco Guidati presented SWEET DeCarbCH - Decarbonisation of heating and cooling in Switzerland
During the breaks, they had the opportunity to get to know the projects interactively at the "marketplace" and to exchange ideas with the researchers. To promote networking beyond SWEET, three projects from programs of Innosuisse, the National Center for Climate Change (NCCS) and the SFOE (P+D) were presented.
Save the date: the 3rd SWEET Conference will take place on 4 September 2024.
