On October 25, 2025, researchers from the Jožef Stefan Institute presented the GREENE project at the RaSTEM – Festival of Science and Technology, organized by the Jožef Stefan Public Educational Institute.

On 27^th and 28^th May, consortium partners of the EU project GREENE gathered for their third in person project meeting at the University of Zaragoza to review progress and discuss next steps in the development of advanced Nd-Fe-B permanent magnets. These magnets play a critical role in powering high-tech products essential for a green energy future like e-motors and wind turbines. The hosting institute, the Instituto de Nanociencia y Materiales de Aragón (INMA), CSIC-Universidad de Zaragoza, is a key partner in the project responsible for the development of advanced characterization techniques, boasting state-of-the-art transmission electron microscopy facilities.

A new postdoctoral position is now open at INMA (Zaragoza, Spain). The Instituto de Nanociencia y Materiales de Aragón (INMA) – a joint institute of the Universidad de Zaragoza (UNIZAR) and the Consejo Superior de Investigaciones Científicas (CSIC) – is one of Spain’s leading centres for materials research.

On 4^th and 5^th June, a consortium of 15 European partners led by the Slovenian Jožef Stefan Institute kicked off GREENE, short for SINGLE-GRAIN RE-ENGINEERED Nd-Fe-B PERMANENT MAGNETS, an EU project with a funding of €8 million. Over a four-year period, partners will develop high-energy Nd-Fe-B based magnets, innovatively re-engineering them at the single grain level to minimize the overall Rare Earth (RE) content, thus reducing environmental impact and supply dependencies for these critical raw materials.
