After the resounding success of CEN2022, we are delighted to invite you to the second Applied Energy Symposium in 2023. With another year having passed, it is becoming increasingly crucial to find our way into a sustainable, clean and carbon-free energy future. Hence, we welcome experts from around the world, be it researchers, industrial practitioners or policy makers, to our exciting and cutting edge Ningbo city to discuss this existentially important topic.
Carbon neutrality is a universal mission which requires urgent and global efforts. It presents both opportunities and challenges on many different levels. Most countries, regions and institutions have pledged to be carbon neutral in the very near future, and are working on strategies to achieve this goal. There is no doubt that our common future depends on rising to the sustainable energy for all challenge, and the various approaches that we employ. That being said, there is plenty of shared ground to inspire and learn, and to make the transition happen. The CEN2023 is looking for contributions and innovations on how to reduce energy demand and to decarbonise energy generation and utilisation, whilst transforming energy infrastructure and integrating innovative technologies. Carbon-neutral, and increasingly carbon-free, energy technology will be at the forefront of these endeavours, thus making clean energy the timely focus for CEN2023.
The CEN2023 will be held on April 22-25, 2023 in the city of Ningbo, one of the fastest growing cities in China. The four-day event is jointly organized by Applied Energy and the Applied Energy Innovation Institute (AEii), and jointly hosted by the Nottingham Ningbo China Beacons of Excellence Research and Innovation Institute, University of Nottingham Ningbo China and Zhejiang University.
The symposium will include keynotes, invited talks, plenary sessions, oral presentations and poster sessions. Outstanding papers will be considered for full publication in special issues of top journals including Applied Energy and Advances in Applied Energy.
