NETWORK TRAINING

SHINE offers a set of networking scientific and transferable skills training sessions open to all the 10 recruited DCs. These events are designed by the project management boards on yearly basis, and then set up and organised by each project participating organisation. All recruited DCs are required to attend these events, with some training sessions also open to external participants.

Training School: Summer School UHS
Lead institution: UEDIN
Start-date: 8-12 July 2024
School name: 3rd International Summer School in Underground hydrogen storage

The 5 day summer school n UHS is developed for a broad audience who would like to learn more about the various aspects of UHS, with a specific focus on students and young researchers. During the course, the attendees should expect lectures from international experts and engaging discussions, as well as site visits and cultural and social activities. In addition, each attendee is given the opportunity to present their research during a dedicated poster session. The summer school will be hybrid and will cover many aspects of UHS including: Successful experiences and under-development sites (commercial and pilot) for UHS, Policy, Regulating & Licensing of UHS, Techno-economics of UHS, Geo-Technical, Feasibility of UHS:, Thermo-Hydrodynamics, Microbiology & Geo-chemistry, Geomechanics & Geology, Characterization, Modeling, Imaging & Monitoring.
