UT calls on collaboration partners to commit to Paris agreement

As active advocates of the energy transition, we call on our partners in the fossil industry and the energy sector to commit to the Paris Agreement. At the University of Twente, we take our role in contributing to a sustainable world seriously. We take a proactive and responsible approach to developing solutions that sustain our planet and the people who live on it. We do this together with others all around us. Our position is not to exclude anyone without good reason and to engage in an ongoing dialogue with a view to encouraging cooperation. For us, active participation in the energy transition also means that we do not initiate research projects that encourage the use of fossil fuels. New cooperation agreements with the fossil industry are only entered into with those parties that show a substantial change in their working method to make the transition from fossil to alternative, renewable sources.
