The TRANSIT project proudly participated in the IEEE PES ISGT Europe 2025 Conference, held in Valletta, Malta, from October 20–23, 2025. Throughout the event, TRANSIT showcased its commitment to fostering innovation, sustainability, and inclusivity in the renewable energy sector through a diverse set of activities.
💡 Inspiring the Next Generation and Advancing Education
The TRANSIT team organized two interactive educational activities:
-
“Superheroes of Renewable Energy” Escape Room: A gamified experience for students, designed to spark interest in renewable energy and smart grids through hands-on challenges.
-
TRANSIT Tutorial – “Smart Grids and Renewables in the Energy Transition”: A technical workshop highlighting open-source educational tools that help learners and professionals understand the operational and economic aspects of modern energy systems.
⚡ Promoting Gender Equality and Inclusion
TRANSIT also hosted a Special Session titled “Powering Progress: Addressing Gender Bias and Disparities in Energy Systems.”
This engaging session brought together experts, practitioners, and academics to discuss the influence of gender bias in energy systems and explore collective actions to foster a more equitable and inclusive energy transition.
