Supported under the WIDERA component of the Horizon Europe Programme, the SolarHub Project aims to establish a Center of Excellence in Solar Energy by connecting two Greek and three Turkish Solar Energy Innovation Ecosystems. The project seeks to foster research by bringing together industry, public institutions, research institutes, and the public, and to accelerate commercialization processes. By promoting the adoption of solar energy technologies in the agri-food sector, it aims to contribute to both economic and environmental sustainability.
