ProgrammesYesterday the European Commission appointed five new members for the Scientific Council of the European Research Council (ERC). The Scientific Council is the governing body of the ERC, which is composed of 22 members, scientists and scholars from across Europe. The four-year mandate of the new members starts on 1 January 2021. Among those new members is Professor Dirk Inzé from Ghent University. In addition to the five new Scientific Council members, the Commission reappointed 16 current members for the same period. The search process for the next President of the Scientific Council is still ongoing. The current President ad interim, Jean-Pierre Bourguignon, will be in office until the next ERC President is selected and takes up duties.

Funded under Horizon Europe (HORIZON-CL5-2022-D5-01-02), running from 2023 to 2026, AENEAS advanced the development of innovative electric energy storage solutions tailored for waterborne transport. The project has also created tools & platforms to support the optimal integration of new energy storage systems into vessels, assess their impact on overall system efficiency, and quantify potential reductions in greenhouse gas emissions. The project consortium, led by Flanders Make, consists of 14 partners from 8 countries. Read more about the project in this testimonial.
