Sun New Energy Conference and Exhibition (Sicily, 6-8 July 2011)

Dear Colleague,

As chairmen of the Sun New Energy Conference and Exhibition (SuNEC 2011) to be held in Sicily, Italy, July 6 through 8, 2011, we are pleased to invite you to take part into the congress, submit an abstract for an oral or poster presentation.

The conference promises to be one of 2011 premiere meetings in the field of solar energy. Please do no further hesitate to download the registration form [pdf] and to register.

The distinguishing feature of the conference will be its a focus on the practical aspects of solar energy. Eminent speakers include Aldo Steinfeld, Raplh J. Nuzzo, Athanasios Konstandopoulos and Vincenzo Balzani. Primary inernational solar companies, too, will exhibit at SuNEC 2011.

All the main topics related to sun's energy -- PV, solar thermal, sun-powered vehicles and solar hydrogen -- will be discussed in the first Europe's region that has already reached the "grid-parity", namely the point at which the price of photovoltaic electricity equals that of conventional power.

On behalf of Italy's scientific community we welcome you to one of Europe's most exciting regions for what we are aiming to make a world-class conference.

Sincerely,

Vittorio Loddo and Mario Pagliaro
Chairman and Co-Chairman of SuNEC 2011
