The ERA / C-DICE Community Fund 2025/26 was launched on Monday of this week (24th). The fund invites PGRs and Post-doctoral researchers at ERA partners to bid for up to £2,500 funding to support them to design, develop, and deliver an energy and/or net-zero-focused event. The events have to be available for researchers to attend from all ERA partners and will need to be completed (including expenditure) by 30th June 2026. As approved at the Leadership Group meeting earlier this month, the total fund pot is £7,500 and so potentially can fund 3+ events.
Details of the fund call can be found at Funding opportunities - ERA Energy Research Accelerator and a webinar to support potential applicants has been scheduled for Monday 8th December (Events from Monday 24th February 2020 – Wednesday 16th February 2022 – ERA Energy Research Accelerator). The presentation section of the webinar will be recorded and made available after the webinar to support anyone who is unable to attend.
