Hi Debra,

Hi Debra - I would say finding the right platform for education and very little guidance presently available.

Hi everyone, I'm Rind from the SDG7 Youth constituency joining from France. I'm working along the organizing team of the 2021 Youth for VEF, specifically the Future-proof skills panel for youth in energy.https://www.viennaenergyforum.org/vienna-energy-forum/One of the areas that need work is the university employment gap (curriculum not suited to the needs of recruiters). On the other hand, youth are having a hard time finding professional environments in energy that are in line with their sustainable values.

What is the current ENERGY CONVERSION RATE for SOLAR PANELS?

great event, thanks

Wikipedia could use more contributors on these topics.

Thank you!

Thanks for a wonderful session!

Opportunity cost - I hear homeowners saying that, if they wait for better conversion rates in newer solar panels, they will get more electricity from their rooftop panels (later) by simply waiting for a year or two.
