The reality of energy in the twenty-first century requires that we address all areas of expertise related to the production of energy from alternative and renewable sources, the storage and conversion of energy, as well as its various applications in all sectors of consumption, since these multiple components, closely interrelated, form a complex system.

As a result, it is not only relevant, but essential to bring together all researchers around complementary objectives that constitute a coherent and comprehensive program.
