Students from Bovec Summer School visited the site of Elettra Sincrotrone in Basovizza (Trieste). The group was received by prof. Rodolfo Taccani from University of Trieste, who prepared a tour of the premises. Together with prof. Taccani, Barbara Milani and Giulia Groppazzi, (all University of Trieste) Aleksander Gerbec of Ecubes and Jurij Giacomelli of META Circularity, NAHV C&D manager received the student group led by their academic leader Cristina Beretta accompanied by Katharina Grafenauer.

Among other topics, he presented the Nord Adriatic Hydrogen Valley (NAHV) and the opportunities arising from the evolving ecosystem based on renewable hydrogen being developed in cooperation among 37 partners from Croatia, Friuli-Venezia Giulia and Slovenia. The evolving NAHV ecosystem is based on the principles of the Quadruple Helix innovation model and foresees a strong involvement of universities from all three target territories. It foresees a growing demand for new knowledge creation – competencies and skills related to the application of hydrogen-based technologies and renewable energy sources at large. – An opportunity for the current generation of Bovec Simmer School..!

The Bovec University Summer Courses, also known as Bovec Summer School or Bovec Poletna Šola, take place in the small Alpine village of Bovec (Plezzo in Italian; Flitsch in German), in the upper Soča Valley in Slovenia, close to the Italian and Austrian borders, and are aimed in particular at university students from the Alps-Adriatic multinational area (Italy, Slovenia, Austria, Croatia).
The aim is to promote and deepen mutual knowledge of the languages, cultures and historical, economic and social events of the populations of the bordering regions in the Alps-Adriatic area.
From year to year, different cultural, social and historical topics are dealt with, with a multicultural and multilingual approach. The courses include actual lessons, lectures, seminars, workshops and field trips and are held in Italian, Slovenian, German, Croatian and Friulian.
The Summer School lasts two weeks and is organised by the University of Klagenfurt (Austria), in cooperation with the Universities of Trieste, Udine (Italy), Ljubljana, Koper (Slovenia), under the patronage of the Austrian Ministry of Education, Science and Culture.
The study places made available cover the costs of board, lodging and participation in the courses. The Summer School entitles the holder to acquire 3 CFU credits.
