SKILL BILL – Skills to Boost Innovation and professional fulfiLLment in a sustainable economy – helps implementing the European Green Deal, promotes Circular Economy and the achievement of a climate-neutral Europe by 2050. SKILL BILL’s overall objective is to develop a large and strong foundation for the growth and acceleration of skills that are required for a more substantial renewable energy development, through stakeholder engagement and the dissemination of scientific expertise and the skilling multi-level workers.
SKILLBILL fosters accelerated renewable energy development through knowledge sharing and peer learning, as well as skilling, upskilling, reskilling. With 10 partners from 7 EU countries, SKILL BILL creates pathways that attract target groups and trigger interest and involvement in RES, in addition to initial education and professional levels.
In the project implementation, EREF provides support to conducting some of the project’s core activities, which include interdisciplinary working groups which exchange on technological and non-technological barriers for renewable energy development, and issues recommendations to overcome these; to establish an inclusive, dynamic and open repository and network for educational videos, interviews with business leaders and training lectures for each technology; to develop an advanced and permanent education program on RES at European level as well as a Vocational Education program for the upskilling of technicians, designers and researchers; and to increase female talent in technology, innovation and scientific research.
