ISMES IX — Materials for Energy and Sustainability

After 5 editions in Erice (Italy), 3 in USA and the stop due to the Covid-19 pandemic, the next ISMES School will take place at the prestigious “Scuola Superiore” of the University of Catania. The school will review critical materials issues for the production and storage of renewable and sustainable energy. The aim of the School is to present the state-of-the-art and future perspectives in this critical area. It will be a great opportunity to bring together the international community of students, young scientists, and experts in a unique atmosphere for reciprocal benefits in terms of enthusiasm, knowledge and new ideas.
