Innovative Energy Solutions will be the focus of several hot topics at this premier conference, joining leaders from three major industries in US and China, to promote green energy to meet the global electricity demand while reducing pollution. We will bring together government officials from China and US with industry and university leaders in the electric power, renewable energy, Information Technology, Internet Infrastructure, Big Data and Artificial Intelligence. This is a unique conference on global visions and solutions to combat climate change via the holistic integration of the next-generation internets with the energy sector, especially smart electric power grids and smart transportation.
It is time to celebrate the 10th Anniversary of the US-China Green Energy Council (UCGEC)! Since the founding of the UCGEC in 2008, our vision has always been to advance the use of green energy to combat global climate change. The themes of the past conferences reflect the changes accomplished by China and the U.S. in that direction. Recent extreme natural disasters in 2017 and their abnormal impacts on many parts of the world, e.g., hurricanes Harvey, Irma and Maria in the U.S., and Typhoon Nato in China, the flooding due to excessive rainfall in China, and the wild fires spreading into urban areas in California indicate that a change in our awareness and priorities is critically needed. “Fueling Our Future” is our call for a reflection on what other innovative energy solutions are critically needed to deal with the humanitarian consequences of these major natural disasters.
Our exciting preliminary programs include Keynote speeches, Panel sessions on Smart Power Grids, AI for Energy, Internet + Big Data; Clean Power Plants and Renewable Energy; Electric Cars, Energy Storage, and Smarter, Greener Cities. In addition to contributing to these sessions and exchanging ideas and information with other speakers, you will also network with other participants during breaks, the lunches, the reception and the dinner.
