EU-CONCERT structures its activities around clearly defined goals
Four main objectives, established in the Memorandum of Understanding, define the core priorities of EU-CONCERT and structure its integrated approach to advancing electrocatalysis across theory, experiment, and collaboration:
- Advanced Theoretical and Computational Approaches: Developing new methods for simulating electrochemical interfaces.
- Collection of experimental data on designed model systems and comparison with simulations: Designing and performing experiments to validate computational predictions.
- Benchmarking and Data Sharing: Establishing standardized protocols for data collection, benchmarking, and sharing.
- Communication, Dissemination, Exploitation and Capacity Building: Promoting knowledge exchange, training researchers, and engaging stakeholders to maximize the impact.
This initiative will not only support the rational design of new catalysts but also foster interdisciplinary collaboration, train future researchers, and contribute to the EU’s green energy transition goals.
Networking & Capacity Building
Over the lifetime of the Action, EU-CONCERT will promote a comprehensive set of networking, mobility, and capacity-building activities to advance scientific exchange and strengthen the European electrocatalysis community:
- Scientific meetings, workshops, and conferences
- Short-Term Scientific Missions (STSMs) enabling hands-on collaboration across Europe
- Training schools and webinars focused on early-career researchers
- Targeted dissemination activities engaging industry, policymakers, and the wider research community
