THE CONFERENCE

The Energy&Materials Research Conference (EMR2012), which will take place in Torremolinos (Malaga, Spain) from 20 to 22 June 2012, will bring together researchers and professionals from a broad set of science and engineering disciplines with the aim of sharing the latest developments and advances in materials, processes and systems involved in the energy generation, transmission-distribution and storage.

In the current situation, where world's energy system is likely to radically change in the next decades, research into materials, processes and systems is currently foreseen as a critical aspect in the development of cleaner and more efficient energy. In this conference series, researchers from very different academic backgrounds (from semiconductor physicists or organic chemists exploring new ways for improving conversion efficiency within solar cells, or electrochemists pursuing better performance and durability of fuel cell components, to microbiologists deepening on how engineered microorganisms can be exploited for generating useful energy, or engineers conceiving new designs for power plants), but with an unique interest in contributing to the global energy and environmental challenges, are expected to meet in a truly interdisciplinary atmosphere.  

 

Areas or research covered will include:
 
  Energy from biomass - Biofuels

   Solar energy:
         Photovoltaics;
Concentrating photovoltaics
         Concentrating solar power; Solar thermal

  Fuel cells 

  Hydrogen

  Wind power. Wave, tidal and hydropower.

       Geothermal energy

  Non-renewable energy sources: nuclear

       and fossil fuels

  Energy transmission-distribution and storage

  Lighting and energy-efficient buildings

  Energy saving and sustainability

 
Please, take some time to read the detailed list of
Topics that will be discussed at the conference.

  

The proceedings of the meeting will be formally released as a book, titled "Fuelling the future: advances in science and technologies for energy generation, transmission and storage", and will be published by BrownWalker Press (Boca Raton, FL, USA), which will ensure an adequate international distribution and availability of the book.


Conference participants will be entitled to submit one full paper to be considered for inclusion in this book. Deadline for submission 18 July 2012. More details here

TORREMOLINOS (MALAGA, SPAIN)

 

The conference will take place in Torremolinos (Malaga, Spain). Torremolinos, which is considered as today Spain’s top tourist destination, is a small city on the Costa del Sol (coast in the south of Spain) The city has evolved over the last few decades to become an attractive resort, focused around its long, sandy and clean beaches, and offering a huge variety of entertainment, leisure facilities and exuberant nightlife. Torremolinos has a wonderful climate with 320 days of sunshine every year. Daily summer temperatures are almost every day over 30˚C, and with yearly averages of 22˚C.
