The IEEE Future Directions Committee have arranged an an Online Forum on Climate Change Technologies (OFCCT), which will be held on October 23-26, 2023 and will highlight recent developments in IEEE technologies and solutions that promote climate stability.
The OFCCT will be an online cross-disciplinary conference with speakers and experts from all over the world working in the energy space and net zero. Participants will learn about IEEE’s use of technology to achieve goals related to addressing the challenges posed by adaptation to and mitigation of climate change, as well as achieving the UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).
IEEE has over 40 Technical Societies and Councils, and over 100 conferences that cover Sustainability and Climate Change Technologies. This online forum will focus on four tracks: Green Energy, Climate Monitoring, Food Security, and IEEE Activities.
It will provide interesting and relevant keynote talks on technology. There will be over 20 talks over 4 days with “on demand” viewing possible. IEEE provides a neutral platform for discussions. IEEE will function as a technology provider.
Speakers include Saifur Rahman, Chongqing Kang, Brian Zahnstecher, Tom Coughlin, Danilo Demarchi, Daniel Kammen, Matías Miguez, Samsuzana Abd Aziz, Ronny Hänsch, Wei-Jen Lee, Paul Jaffe, Avik Bhattacharya, Biqing Zhu, Adrian Bull, Ahmed Hussein, Steven Mirsky, Brian Zahnstecher, Long Zhao, John Verboncoeur, Christine Miyachi, Maike Luiken and Sharan Kalwani.
