Scope

With the launch of the Symposium on Electrocatalysis & Materials for Energy Conversion and Storage in 2015 TU Berlin started a new annual meeting to present research conducted at TUB to an international audience. The El Gouna satellite campus TU Berlin provides new opportunities for knowledge transfer on an international basis that will be further developed in this conference.

Ranging from fuel cells, sea water electrolysis and battery technology to rational materials design this meeting establishes important connections in the context of the Energy Engineering master’s program and brings together people working in the field from Egypt and Germany.

The three day symposium will offer extended time for scientific discussions and critical debate. Attendees are expected to actively participate in discussions with talks or posters.

Abstract submission & Registration

Abstract submission for talks and posters is open until December 20^th 2019. Please submit a one-page abstract without figures as pdf and indicate your preferred form of presentation in the subject line – “talk” or “poster” – to: elgounasymposium@technischechemie.tu-berlin.de

Please use the abstract template form available on the conference website or contact via the email above. The symposium is free of charge for participants. However, a registration procedure will be applied. All the participants have to register. Only those with confirmed registration are allowed to attend.
