Theme: Advancing Conventional Energy Systems for a Secure, Efficient and Low-Carbon Future
Welcome to GSCESS-2027
Welcome to GSCESS-2027, a premier international conference dedicated to advancing the science, engineering, and sustainable transformation of conventional energy systems. As nations balance growing energy demands with urgent climate commitments, conventional energy infrastructure remains vital for global energy security and economic stability. Under the theme "Advancing Conventional Energy Systems for a Secure, Efficient and Low-Carbon Future," GSCESS-2027 serves as a dynamic platform to explore next-generation solutions. We bring together leading researchers, engineers, policymakers, and industry experts to bridge the gap between traditional power systems and a low-carbon future. Hosted in the historic city of Rome, Italy, the conference will feature world-renowned keynote speakers, plenary lectures, technical sessions, panel discussions, and technology exhibitions. Our comprehensive program emphasizes the integration of advanced engineering, digital technologies, artificial intelligence, and carbon management to maximize efficiency and drastically lower emissions.
