Thank you for INNOVATING with us on May 11, 2024!! We had a wonderful time with you!!
Are you ready for Science Rendezvous 2025? It is time to WONDER with us!
We will back on May 10th, 2025, with a new line-up of exciting events, activities, and demos!
You can still connect with Future Energy Systems on our social media, our Learning Page (full of resources of teachers, parents and kids) and our YouTube Channel.
Highlights
Welcome to Future Energy Systems' Science Rendezvous!!!
Energy! Climate change! The environment! Do you wonder how it all works? Our Energy Adventurers are ready to take you on a journey to explore energy! Spend the day with Remi, the cat, and Tommy, the dog, as they learn about our energy systems –– past, present, and future.
Explore the energy all around you!
Does your electricity come from the sun, wind, fossil fuels, or something else – find out in “Where Is My Electricity From?” Can you use a balloon to move items – find out in “Shocking Static Electricity.” What small changes can you make in your life to reduce your footprint – find out in “Sustainability Actions.” Find these booths at our Energy Adventure at TELUS World of Science – Edmonton.
Get creative with energy!
Join researchers, students, and more as we explore energy in “Draw Our Energy Future” where you become part of the vision of our future and “Drawing STEAM” where we use shapes to create characters, sources of energy, and more. Join us at Future Energy Systems’ Energy Adventure at TELUS World of Science – Edmonton on May 11, 2024, 11am-3pm.
Technology and energy...how are they connected?
Energy and technology are linked in so many ways. From designing a hydrogen fuel cell powered cars with Ecocar, to exploring ways to store energy, to finding ways to see pollution in our water, it is time to get hands-on with researchers.
Future Energy Systems is a research program at the University of Alberta. It was launched in 2016 with $75 million from the Government of Canada’s Canada First Research Excellence fund, to help Canada transition to a low net-carbon energy economy.
We focus on multidisciplinary research that develops the energy technologies of the near future, integrates them into today’s infrastructure, and examines possible consequences for our society, economy, and environment. We also contribute to the development of solutions for challenges presented by current energy systems.
