On September 10, the ST Renewable Energies Chair welcomed in Évora Professor William Beckman, Professor Emeritus of Mechanical Engineering and Director Emeritus of the Solar Energy Laboratory at the University of Wisconsin-Madison.

Professor William Beckman is one of the most eminent personalities in the field of Solar Energy, co-author of "Solar Engineering of Thermal Processes", quite likely the most used text book by students and researchers of Solar Energy throughout the World.

During his visit, Professor William Beckman had the opportunity to tour the facilities of the ST Renewable Energies Chair, in particular the experimental platforms at Herdade da Mitra and to exchange views with the Chair’s researchers and students.

The ST Renewable Energies Chair team wishes to heartily thank Professor William Beckman for his initiative to visit us.
