The proposal is to set up and develop over three years a self-sustaining Network for Renewable Energy Research and Technology Transfer with the main aim of creating and maintaining an internationally competitive UK industry. Specific objectives of the proposed network are as above.The network will organise training workshops, seminars and research exchanges, as well as specialised events focused on industrial liaison, e.g., the involvement of Small and Medium Enterprises (SMEs) in research, proposal writing, research methods, peer review and the sharing of best practices between members.The network will provide a timely and cost-effective opportunity to raise the research profile of renewable energy and increase the competitiveness of UK industry. The network will create a focus for research, technology transfer and dissemination strategy for renewable energy in the built environment The network will bring together academic research groups, industry and government departments to work together with the aim of creating new business opportunities in the UK. The network will also aim increase public awareness of the environmental benefits of renewable energy.
