NESSIE

Goal

With NESSIE (NEw Skills & Spaces Impulse for the Education of Aspiring Energy Transition Installers), we aim to recruit more staff and accelerate knowledge transfer to skilled professionals. We do this by developing and implementing innovative recruitment campaigns and new educational modules based on local, regional, and (inter)national best practices.

Description

The EU Green Deal aims to make the EU climate-neutral by 2050. To achieve this, a significant and rapid increase in sufficient skilled workers and skilled craftspeople in the energy transition is crucial. Through NESSIE, we contribute to this by training future workers. Employment of energy transition craftspeople, including electricians, installers, service technicians, and plumbers, must grow exponentially, and millions of jobs must be created in the coming years to implement the energy transition.

Our role

We are the lead partner and support the various activities within the project. Our main focus is organizing workshops and replication activities, supporting the partners. We are also responsible for implementing the project's communication and dissemination initiatives and are involved in organizing the final conference.

Partners

In addition to New Energy Coalition, the Province of Fryslân, Morbihan Energies, the Municipality of Ameland, Flux50, Aalborg University, Samsø Energy Academy Association, Firda, Berufsbildende Schulen Borkum, Nordseeheilbad Borkum GmbH, Ortshandwerkerschaft Borkum, Learning Hub Friesland, Institute Universitaire de Technologie (UIT) and Lorient-Pontivy are participating in this project.
