NWO and the National Growth Fund programme GroenvermogenNL are awarding 19.3 million euros to the HyFINE consortium for increasing the sustainability of the synthesis of specialty and fine chemicals. This can make an important contribution to making the Dutch chemical industry more sustainable.
EUROfusion ERG-EEG grant 2026
Two postdoctoral researchers of DIFFER have been awarded a EUROfusion grant. With the Engineering Grant (EEG), Maria Morbey will work on some of the key technological questions that arise when realising fusion energy. The Research Grant (ERG) enables Stefan Dasbach to develop innovative ideas aligned with EUROfusion’s Roadmap to Fusion Energy.
