Mornings – panel sessions
From Tuesday to Friday, between breakfast and lunch, the panel sessions run in parallel for the presentation and discussion of the accepted peer-reviewed papers and extended abstracts.
Afternoons – a less formal approach
The period after lunch each day is reserved for informal sessions in which any participant can set up a discussion on a current energy efficiency issue.
In parallel with the informal sessions, partners can arrange solutions workshops.
Display session
The display session is held on the afternoon of 7 June. Authors will show their posters or other displays and be available to answer questions and comments. The best diplays by popular vote and a jury decision will be rewarded.
Evenings – plenary sessions
Plenary sessions are held in the early evenings.
The constant networking and discussions
Day and night: You will find hundreds of people eager to discuss energy efficiency.
The grand finale
The tradition on Friday is to conclude with a conference summary and final debate followed by a special banquet. In the evening there is a party with dance under the dark night skies.
Informal sessions – a favourite among participants
Informals are not supposed to be a long row of powerpoint slides. Instead, a good informal have an introduction presentation of a problem, idea, concept, etc., to be followed by an informed and creative discussion. If you set one up, you are also taking responsiblity for the content and moderation. Note: Only registered participants can sign up to arrange an informal. You do not have to sign up to take part in a session arranged by someone else.
