The University of Oxford today announces the launch of the multi-disciplinary ZERO Institute (Zero-carbon Energy Research Oxford) to tackle the challenges of an equitable, secure global zero-carbon energy transition.
Bringing together leading academics from a range of disciplines, the Institute will address the questions surrounding zero-carbon energy systems and their implementation.
The transition from carbon-based energy to zero-carbon energy will play the crucial role in achieving the Paris Agreement's global warming limits. Currently, more than 70% of the greenhouse gases responsible for a changing climate come from converting and using energy.
