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 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!

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.
