Welcome to Kuopio

Welcome to the 6^th ESEIA International Conference that will be organized on 4 December 2024 in Kuopio, Finland. The name of the conference, “Net Zero and Beyond”, encapsulates our urgent need to establish a sustainable energy system – net zero – while simultaneously finding ways to achieve carbon negativity. As the global climate crisis intensifies, merely reaching net-zero emissions is no longer sufficient. We must also explore strategies to actively remove carbon from the atmosphere, creating a net-positive impact on our environment.

This conference will address a broad spectrum of topics essential to our ambitious goal – net zero. We will delve into the latest advancements in renewable energy, energy storage, and smart technologies, while also discussing innovative policy frameworks and community engagement strategies. Our aim is not only to share cutting-edge research and practical solutions but also to inspire collaborative efforts that transcend traditional boundaries and push the envelope of what is possible in the realm of sustainable energy. Hopefully, during the conference we get insights for carbon negative future.

The ESEIA Conference is organized by Savonia University of Applied Sciences in collaboration with European Sustainable Energy Innovation Alliance and Energy Cluster North Savo and project Smart heating systems in a climate-friendly way by utilizing artificial intelligence ÄLLITÄ.

You are warmly welcome to the Conference!
