EFRC Good Practices 2017 The EFRCs bring together multi-disciplinary teams of researchers to tackle challenging scientific problems and lay the foundations for future energy technologies. BES acknowledges that the approaches to managing these collaborations have varied considerably from center to center based on institutional context, historical interaction, topical area, and personal style. Nonetheless, it has also become clear that there are some key attributes that typically contribute to a successful EFRC. In addition, BES has observed various management approaches that EFRCs have successfully implemented to achieve these key attributes. This reference document outlines the key attributes and a number of these “good practices.” BES emphasizes that these are intended to serve as suggestions and guidelines, not requirements.
