The International Conference on Renewable Energy (ICREN 2018) will be taking place between 25-27 April 2018 in Barcelona. The Royal Society of Chemistry journals Energy & Environmental Science, Sustainable Energy & Fuels and Molecular Systems Design & Engineering are delighted to be supporting the event.

Professor Christoph Brabec, an Advisory Board member for Sustainable Energy & Fuels, will be delivering a speech on “Novel Photovoltaic Materials and Technologies for a Sustainable Energy Supply”, having been invited to ICREN 2018 as a plenary speaker.

The World Conference on Carbon (Carbon 2018) is going to be running from 1-6 July 2018 in Madrid, Spain. The Conference aims to provide an innovative and comprehensive overview of the latest research developments on carbon science and applications.

Sustainable Energy & Fuels, along with Energy & Environmental Science, are pleased to be supporting Carbon 2018 and will be providing awards.

The 2017 MRS Fall Meeting is taking place in Boston, MA, USA between 26 November-1 December. The Royal Society of Chemistry is partnering with the Materials Research Society to sponsor two of the meeting’s Energy and Sustainability symposia:

• ES01: Perovskite Materials and Devices—Progress and Challenges
• ES02: On the Way to Sustainable Solar Fuels—New Concepts, Materials and System Integration

RSC journals Energy & Environmental Science and Sustainable Energy & Fuels will each be awarding prizes to the best abstracts at both ES01 and ES02 symposia, while Journal of Materials Chemistry A will join both in sponsoring an award for ES01 and offering a 1-year subscription to the winners.

The 233rd ECS Meeting will be taking place in Seattle, Washington on the 13-18 May 2018.

The event will feature over 50 symposia on areas including:

• Batteries and Energy Storage
• Carbon Nanostructures and Devices
• Corrosion Science and Technology

The University of Electro-Communications (UEC), Tokyo, Japan, will host the International Symposium on Novel Energy Nanomaterials, Catalysts and Surfaces for Future Earth (NENCS) between the 28-30 October 2017. The symposium will provide a scientific platform for the global community of researchers active in materials research, characterization/imaging with synchrotron radiation in situ/operando XAFS, and X-ray based techniques.

Catalysis Science & Technology, Energy & Environmental Science, PCCP and Sustainable Energy & Fuels are delighted to be supporting the symposium and each journal will be sponsoring  a poster award by offering a one-year online subscription to the winners!

Between October 8th – 10th 2017, the 1st Ulm Symposium on Solar-Driven Chemistry (SOLCHEM) will be taking place at Ulm University in Germany. SOLCHEM aims at bringing together researchers interested in (solar) light-driven chemistry so as to generate a central platform for diverse research areas including:

• Photochemistry and Photocatalysis
• Organic Photovoltaics and Dye-Sensitized Solar Cells
• Light-driven Mechanisms, Spectroscopy and Photophysics
• Photoelectrochemistry and Photochemical Devices
• Photodynamic therapy and light-induced theranostics

Energy & Environmental Science and Sustainable Energy & Fuels are pleased to be supporting SOLCHEM 2017 and will be each offering a prize for the winner poster submissions – good luck to all those who have entered!
