Academic researchers are invited to apply for grants of up to £5,000 to support research that contributes to the development of a more sustainable, equitable and democratically accountable energy system in the South West of England.

The Bristol Sustainable Energy Research Fund (BSERF) is now open for applications as part of a second round of funding, awarding between £500 and £5,000.

The deadline for submissions is 14 June 2020 and successul recipients will be announced in early July.

Bristol Energy Coop and CSE, the organisations behind BSERF, are particularly interested to hear from researchers with proposals that support practical steps to building a more sustainable economy.
