Through the support of the <a href=\"https:\/\/esc.ethz.ch\">ETH Energy Science Centre (ESC)<\/a>, the Energy Blog @ETH team, consisting mostly of PhD students, along with professors and ESC staff, has worked to create a space where anyone working in energy at ETH Zurich can showcase their research or give informed opinions on pertinent energy topics of our time.<\/h3><h3>In this article, we at the Energy Blog @ETH team want to give you a glimpse <em>\u201cbehind the curtain\u201d <\/em>into the inner workings of our team!

As Evan puts it, Meredith argued that \u201cyoung researchers should have a voice in the general power dynamics and academia.\u201d<\/p><p>Although they were in their early PhD days, the energy enthusiasts also wanted to \u201cbuild a community of energy PhD students at ETH, something that ties them together and allows students to engage in thought provoking debates\u201d on all things <em>Energy<\/em>. This call to action and desire to create a space for students to synthesise their work to a broader audience led to the development of the Energy Blog @ETH.
