Joint Symposium on Innovation in Energy Systems
Organized by Collaborative Research Center for Energy Engineering (CEE) |
Co-hosted by Center for Advanced Power & Environmental Technology (APET) |
Cooperated by Frontier Research Center for Energy and Resources (FRCER) |
Date: | Thursday 24 September 2009 |
Time: | 10:00〜17:10 (Registration starts at 9:30) |
Venue: | Institute of Industrial Science, the University of Tokyo Convention Hall (2nd floor Block An) |
The Collaborative Research Center for Energy Engineering (CEE) will hold the Joint Symposium on Innovation in Energy Systems with Imperial College London. Given global climate change and the need to ensure secure energy supplies, within the context of a trend toward increasing global demand, it is imperative to decarbonize the energy used and to secure sustainable long-term supplies. Based on this common understanding, the symposium will provide participants with first-hand exposure to academic research from the perspectives of energy systems, built environment, and human activities.
