The young scientists who apply for participation and submit a paper on the topic should present their research with some importance to how it fits into providing and understanding the problems (e.g. new measurements) and potential solutions (e.g. improved batteries, better power electronics, system integration of renewables and stand-by power) to the risks of climate change and carbon free energy.

For the general audience, Burton Richter’s book, “Beyond Smoke and Mirrors: Climate Change and Energy in the 21st Century”, 2nd edition, is recommended.
