Abstract

The International Conference on Clean Energy Science(ICCES) held every three years provides a forum for scientists and engineers to discuss the most recent developments in clean energy, and promoting international collaborations to identify and address challenges in the area. This paper briefly summarizes the work on clean energy and energy storage reported in the 2nd International Conference on Clean Energy Science(2nd ICCES) held in Qingdao, China, April 13—16, 2014. Solar energy conversion, photocatalysis and environmental catalysis, electrochemical energy conversion and storage remain hot topics. Clean coal and fossil fuels technologies, biofuels and biomass conversion, bio and bio-inspired systems for energy conversion are seen to become new hotspots of research. CO2 capture, storage and utilization, hydrogen production and storage are still seen to be growing areas. Materials and nanotechnology for energy systems remain key areas for resolving some clean energy and energy storage related challenges.
