Energy

Traditional energy sources, such as fossil fuels, have significant environmental effects, including climate change, air pollution, and ecosystem degradation. By transitioning to renewable energy and clean technologies, the industry reduces its environmental impact, as well as decreases negative health impacts from the industry.

The French Alternative Energies and Atomic Energy Commission (CEA) is the energy value chain ambassador in the IRISS International SSbD Community. The CEA provides the expertise and innovation needed to support the deployment of a low-carbon energy system, a mission carried out by all of its operational directorates, foremost among them the Energy Directorate (DES). In a context marked by the climate emergency, energy supply tensions and rising prices, the CEA has committed to strengthening its research activities in the energy sector.
