A new 5-year PhD Programme

Building upon the success of DESTINY1 project, we are now launching DESTINY2! The programme will train 42 highly-qualified PhD fellows and will allow them knowledge, skills, and competencies in the interdisciplinary fields of energy storage, as well as transferable skills (project management, communication, research planning, innovation etc.) required to make them highly competitive in both the academic and industrial workforce.

A strong european consortium

DESTINY2 is coordinated by Centre National de la Recherche Scientifique (CNRS) in France and gathers 21 European Universities (grading HEIs and places for secondments), 6 Research Centers, 3 Large Scale Facilities and 7 private companies from, overall, 12 different countries, most of them members of Battery 2030+ and stakeholders of the European Network ALISTORE-ERI.
