The 1st IEEE Conference on Technologies for Sustainability (SusTech) will be held

in conjunction with the 2013 IEEE-USA Annual Meeting in

Portland, Oregon on August 1st & 2nd, 2013.

 The conference is organized in six tracks:

  • Alternative Energy (e.g. solar, wind, tidal, fuel cells, energy harvesting, nuclear)
  • Energy Efficiency (e.g. building design, auto electronics & fuel economy, computer farms, aviation)
  • Electric Vehicles (e.g. motors, drive controls, batteries, environmental & power distribution impacts)
  • Smart Grid (e.g. communications, control, power electronics, energy storage)
  • Electronic Materials (e.g. ROHS/no-Pb/CFCs, life-cycle assessment, global materials supply, nanotechnology & health/environment)
  • Quality of Life (e.g. EM spectrum allocation, global warming, autonomous vehicles, water, medical electronics, global education & human resources)

and will feature distinguished invited speakers in each track. Full papers will be published in the Proceedings and IEEE Xplore®. As appropriate for a conference associated with IEEE USA, topics with policy implications are especially welcome, in both technologies for sustainability and sustainable technologies.

Papers are solicited for both oral and poster presentation from industry, government and academia (including students) covering relevant research, technologies, methodologies, tools and case studies. The intention of the conference is to explore the comprehensive nature of the sustainability concept and to emphasize the role of technology in achieving a sustainable life style. The topic listings above are meant to indicate the breadth of the area and are definitely not to be considered exhaustive.

To submit a 2-page abstract, please visit: ieee-sustech.org/authors page and follow the instructions there.
