Second Workshop on Energy, Climate, and ESG

You are cordially welcome to participate in this three-day workshop on energy, climate, and ESG. As last year, the workshop will gather academics and practitioners from the industry, discussing the latest advances on the stochastics of risk measuring, modelling and managing, with a focus on energy systems, climate, and finance (ESG).

Key topics involve modelling uncertainty in weather and climate, optimisation problems related to energy systems to control emissions, as well as measuring risk factors related to climate change.

There will be several invited talks by leading researchers as well as selected contributed talks by participants.

Time and place: May 3, 2023 9:00 AM – May 5, 2023 1:00 PM, University of Oslo
