Symposium “Digital Intelligence for Climate Change Mitigation” : GERAD

iCalendar

Mar 11, 2025 01:00 PM — 08:00 PM

How can digital intelligence help mitigate climate change? In particular, how can decision support contribute to the energy transition? CIRROD, GERAD and RQEI invite you to explore these questions.

Focusing on tools to guide the energy transition and climate change mitigation, this free symposium presented by CIRROD, GERAD and RQEI will be divided into four parts: two sessions where researchers will share their work, followed by a cocktail reception and a panel discussion where researchers, industry and municipalities will discuss their concerns and innovative solutions.

The program is divided into two parts. The first, divided into two blocks, will feature scientific presentations and a cocktail reception for discussions with the researchers. The second will be dedicated to a panel discussion open to the public.

Registration form to participate in the conference.

A poster session will be held during the break and cocktail reception. If you wish to submit a poster, please fill in the following form.
