The bp Net Zero Scholarship in Germany (Fully Funded)
The world’s carbon budget is finite and running out fast; at bp we know the world needs a rapid transition to net zero. We all want energy that is reliable and affordable, but that is no longer enough. It must also be cleaner. This will require nothing short of reimagining energy for people and our planet.
bp has set an ambition to become a net zero company by 2050 or sooner, and to help the world get to net zero. This means dramatically reducing carbon in the company’s operations and production while growing new low carbon businesses, products and services. More details of bp’s ambition can be found here.
As bp heads towards net zero, we are committed to listening to, learning from and working with others. That’s why bp is pleased to support the Net Zero Scholarship, a programme to identify and engage with young innovators who are reimaging energy for people and planet today.

I am very eager to work with you in this field. Because i am interested in to study and research about some of new method at proper use from “solar energy” in our buildings ,unfortunately third world countries , are highly energy_consuming in their buildings, and this has many consequences and as engineers we have to provide the best practices, so i want to study and research about rational use of energy in buildings and to promote sustainable architecture worldwide .
