Luxembourg this week will inaugurate a new competence centre for energy efficiency. Delano’s Cordula Schnuer and Ara City Radio’s Tom Clarke on Monday took a closer look at how the centre should help the grand duchy’s energy transition.

With soaring demand and unprecedented subsidies for energy-friendly home improvement, the trades and crafts sector is lacking around 1,700 skilled employees to actually do the work. A new competence centre is set to offer new expertise and training opportunities in the field.

To kick off the week, Cordula and Tom also talked about some upcoming events, including St Patrick’s Day events at numerous Irish bars in Luxembourg, national voter registration day on 18 March, experimental play The Writer and the Jonk Fuerscher science competition awards ceremony.

Finally, Cordula’s pick of the week was The Menu, a film by director Mark Mylod, which stars Ralph Fiennes as an unhinged celebrated chef. Nicholas Hoult, Anya Taylor-Joy, John Leguizamo and more well-known faces star as the guests at a secluded island restaurant where they soon discover that murder is on the menu.
