Hello everyone,<\/p>\n

It gives me great pleasure to introduce myself to you today, in my new role as Director of RQEI.<\/p>\n

First of all, my sincere and personal thanks to Kodjo for his remarkable work. His contribution has enabled us to create a new dynamic favoring collaborative projects between the various players in the energy sector.<\/p>\n

RQEI’s first year of operation has enabled us to structure the network, and work is already well underway to put forward concrete solutions to meet the targets of our government’s Energy Policy. In fact, many of our researchers and students already benefit from RQEI funding. So we look forward to sharing the results of their work in the coming year.<\/p>\n

The coming months will definitely be busy, with, among other things, the launch of scientific leadership and the introduction of transdisciplinarity to meet the expectations of the community and thus increase the network’s societal impact. And, as you already know, our efforts will be focused on ensuring RQEI’s continued existence in 2022 through success in the FRQ-NT’s Regroupements strat\u00e9giques competition. <\/span><\/p>\n

I’ll stop here for the moment, but I invite you to contact me personally to share both your proposals and your expectations of RQEI.<\/p>\n

Yours sincerely<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n
