Outreach and Partners

Strong and significant partnerships are integral to the success of IREE and are encouraged. Great advancements in renewable energy research and programs will come from synergistic efforts between University faculty/staff and external experts. Different expertise lies within the University, industry, nonprofit communities or government, and in order for projects have real impacts, we will need to capitalize on the strengths of all types of organizations. IREE will help to explore and facilitate such synergies, forming partnerships on research, demonstration and education.

IREE also paticipats in outreach activities including the IREE annual research conference and symposium series.
