The Namibia Energy Institute (NEI) is pleased to invite students enrolled in Master’s and PhD programmes to apply for bursaries in the field of renewable heating and cooling, with a particular focus on solar thermal energy. This opportunity is available through the Southern African Renewable Heating and Cooling Training and Demonstration Initiative (SOLTRAIN+) project. The SOLTRAIN+ project is a regional initiative and a logical extension of the previous SOLTRAIN project. Funded by the Austrian Development Agency (ADA), the project has been implemented through six SADC partners, with NUST-NEI serving as Namibia's implementing partner since the project’s inception in 2009.

SOLTRAIN+ Conference taking place during the 2024 SADC Sustainable Energy Week from 24 to 28 February 2025, Gaborone, Botswana
