SET 2018 – the 17^th International Conference on Sustainable Energy Technologies – will be held in Wuhan, 21-23 August 2018. The conference will be hosted by Hubei University of Technology and will be held in a convention centre close to 4/5 star hotels, malls, restaurants and bars. Wuhan’s economic strength is ranked 9^th among all Chinese cities. Some of the places to visit are Yellow Crane Tower, East Lake and Hubei Provincial Museum. We are planning to take a river cruise on the Wuhan Yangtze River.

We have invited eminent keynote speakers to give lecture on topics including:

• Energy Storage for the Age of Renewables
• Research, Innovation and Commercialization in Sustainable Energy Technologies
• Integrating Planning & Policy, Architecture, Engineering & Economics
• Energy and Environment
• Engineering Thermophysics 
• Systemic Change for Cities

Wuhan is close to Shanghai. You will have the opportunity to see this vibrant city and also visit several interesting places such as The Bund, Shanghai Tower (world’s second tallest building), Yu Garden, Shanghai Museum, Shanghai Circus and Jade Buddha Temple. 

The deadline for abstract submissions is 5^th March 2018. All WSSET members will receive a 20% discount on the conference registration fees.

Selected papers will be published in several international journals including: International Journal of Low-Carbon Technologies, Future Cities and Environment, Renewable Bioresources, Applied Thermal Engineering and International Journal of Energy Research . You could also submit your research projects to the 3^rdWSSET innovation Awards (please see www.wsset.org). The winners will be announced at the SET2018 Conference.

Thank you for your continued support for SET conferences and WSSET.

I look forward to seeing you in Wuhan, China.
