about the conference
1st International Conference: Energy Policy and Environment
In an era where energy production is an important factor in economic growth, energy policy (both nationally and internationally) has been the subject of debate and decisive decisions for modern society. In our region, a new era free from the use of lignite is needed to come and therefore new energy technologies must be proposed.
On the basis of the above, the conference's proposals on energy policies and environmental strategies are key factors in developing a viable proposal for the transition to the new era of energy production. The gap between the Academic Community and State bodies can be filled by this Conference. We are also providing the opportunity to present scientific papers related to the conference's topics.
In the context of our University's extroversion and the promotion of your scientific work, we announce the 1st International Conference on Energy Policy and Environment (1st I.C.E.P.E.) that will take place at the premises of the University of Western Macedonia during the period 29-31 May 2020.
