The Pasadena Convention Center in Pasadena, CA will be hosting the annual International Conference on Thermoelectrics (2017ICT) between 31 July and 3 August 2017. This Conference is the 36th in the series of international conferences on thermoelectrics that provides a global forum for presentations and information exchange on the latest emerging thermoelectric technology. This conference series began in 1976 in Arlington, Texas, USA and since 1988, has been held in various countries in Europe, Asia and the Americas, where most of the activities in thermoelectrics research are located.

Sustainable Energy & Fuels and Journal of Materials Chemistry C are delighted to support the 36th Annual International Conference on Thermoelectrics (ICT).

The 4th Annual Energy Materials Symposium will be taking place on Thursday 7 September 2017 at the University of Bath.

This meeting will cover experimental and computational work on new materials, fundamental science and industrial developments on solar cells, lithium batteries, solid oxide fuel cells and thermoelectric devices.

Royal Society of Chemistry journals Energy & Environmental Science and Sustainable Energy & Fuels will be supporting the event, contributing prizes for the winning posters.

Registration for the event closes 31 July 2017.

The 15th International Conference on Carbon Dioxide Utilization (ICCDU XV) will run between 17-21 July 2017 in Shanghai, China, co-hosted by Shanghai Advanced Research Institute of Chinese Academy of Sciences and ShanghaiTech University. The conference will covers these 5 main topics:

1. CO₂ as a green feedstock via reduction
2. CO₂ as a building block via functionalization
3. CO₂ Capture and mineralization
4. CO₂ as a working agent
5. Carbon budget, policy and strategies
