European Energy Conference - Call for abstracts
19 April 2010 - 23 April 2010
Spain
The world community, and not least Europe, is confronted with converging crises, economic, environmental, employment and social. Energy – its availability at acceptable economic and environmental cost, and with the prospect of sustainability – is a key factor in confronting these crises. Given these circumstances, four leading European scientific organisations are committed to a synergetic engagement to evaluate and promote European research and technology competence in the energy field. Fundamental research of course must be structured for application, so that through engineering practice it can fulfil the requirements of society. The first European Energy Conference will not be an isolated event; it launches an ongoing forum of Communication and cooperation promoting energy-related research.
The European Science Foundation, the European Association for Chemical and Molecular Sciences, the European Materials Research Society and the European Physical Society share the conviction that fundamental scientific aspects of energy research and development will be substantially more efficient, with faster progress and a promotion of understanding through an interaction of their specialist disciplines, chemistry, material sciences and physics. The European scientific community has the potential to optimise interdisciplinary cooperation and communication in energy research. Therefore this newly launched European Energy Conference series will promote, consolidate and communicate this vitally necessary synergy. Although focused on energy research and technology, this conference series fully recognises the political, economic, social and environmental aspects of energy supply and consumption. Sustainable development is ultimately a social and community imperative, which can only be accomplished within this larger context.
The Conference will cover chemistry, physics and material sciences related to energy technologies. In addition to plenary keynote presentations on diverse energy themes, parallel sessions will deal with energy sources, storage and conversion of energy and end-use including energy conservation.
The scientific committee welcomes original contributions on the following topics:
? Primary Energy - sources: solar and environmental, fuels and earth and ocean, fission and fusion
? Energy Conversion and Storage - electrochemistry for energy, thermodynamics and thermal processes, supporting
technologies
? End Use of Energy - the efficient home, transport, demand and environmental management
? Emerging Topics - for highly-relevant topics not covered by the sessions above
Abstracts must be submitted online using the E2C submission form by 15 November 2009.
