THE EUROPEAN FORUM FOR ENERGY RESEARCH/ 2ND EUROPEAN ENERGY CONFERENCE 2012

The 2nd European Energy Conference will take place in Masstricht Exhibition & Congress Centre, NL  from April 17- 20 2012 and will be chaired by Professor Harald Bolt, Forschungszentrum Jülich, Germany.

Energy is vital to our society and economy. The future European energy system has to be sustainable in terms of environmental and climate impact and also in terms of supply, industrial viability and societal acceptance. A resolution of this dilemma is imperative. Changes will, by necessity, happen on many different time scales from ongoing actions, to beyond 100 years. The second European Energy Conference will take place at a time for strategic decisions.

The Conference will bring together experts from various disciplines and sectors to create a joint vision on the future of energy in Europe. It will foster interdisciplinary cooperation and communication in energy research and contribute to development and innovation in the field.
This symposium is especially supposed to provide a forum for novel and groundbreaking ideas in energy research. Part of it will focus on new materials and processes with potential for a future sustainable energy system in a cross-disciplinary approach.
The conference will provide participants with a view and a vision on how the future of energy in Europe could look like.
