| Conference Programme |
Due the travel disruption, it was necessary to run a revised programme at the conference. The individual programme for each day can be found below:
Tuesday 20 April
Wednesday 21 April
Thursday 22 April
Please note: The revised programme differs significantly from the full programme shown below.
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.
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.
