Selection Process and Criteria
Having received your application we will then contact you to discuss and further develop the proposal. The Meeting Place manager, the UKERC Research Director and appropriate academic experts will review proposals. Assessment of applications will be based on compatibility with the Meeting Place selection criteria (see below), the quality of the project proposed, the importance of the project to the UK energy community and the applicant’s ability to deliver the proposed outputs.
In selecting proposals, the Meeting Place will ensure that the profile of its activities over time offer variety and balance, reflecting activities and priorities of all areas of the energy research community.
