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
Time10:00〜17:10 (Registration starts at 9:30)
VenueInstitute 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.
