| Description: | Objective of the Conference
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. Topics 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. Afternoon sessions will cover the following topics: SESSION A ‐ Primary Energy Sources • Solar and environmental: photovoltaics and photo‐chemistry, wind, tide and wave, geothermal, hydro, biofuels • Fuels from earth and ocean: fossil (including non‐conventional ‐ clathrates, shales, tar sands), marine technology, geophysics, corrosion • Fission and fusion: materials, instrumentation and control, associated technologies including cryogenics, modeling SESSION B ‐ Energy Conversion and Storage • Electrochemistry for energy: batteries, supercapacitors, fuel cells, electrolysis, electrolytes catalysts and materials for electrochemistry • Thermodynamics and thermalprocesses: thermal energy storage, thermoelectrics, high temperature materials, catalysts & refractories, petrochemistry for electrochemistry Supporting technologies: • energy vectors ‐ electrical and chemical, materials and systems for energy distribution, super‐conductors, sensors, smart grids SESSION C ‐ End Use of Energy • The efficient home: archi‐tecture, comfort control, heating and cooling, energy management, domestic cogeneration • Transport: "car of the future", "flight of the future", marine (including nuclear), public transport ‐ rail/innovative • Demand & environmental management: disposal of wastesradioactive, toxic, CO2, energy‐intensive industries ‐ metallurgy, ceramics, glass, cement |
