II International Conference on Renewable Energy Sources, Energy Efficiency and the Environment (JIFREEEMA)

Dear Colleagues,

The Study Center of Renewable Energy Technologies (CETER), belonging to the Faculty of Mechanical Engineering, and the Study Center of Process Engineering (CIPRO), belonging to the Faculty of Chemical Engineering, both of the José Antonio Echeverría Technological University of Havana, invite scientists, engineers, businessmen, specialists and professionals to participate in the XII Ibero-American University Symposium on the Environment (SUIMA 2025), and the XI International Conference on Renewable Energy, Energy Saving and Energy Education (CIER 2025) that will be held from June 4 to 6, 2025 at the Habana Libre Hotel, in Havana, Cuba.

SUIMA 2025 will constitute a favorable framework for initiating and strengthening professional and academic contacts, as well as for establishing forms of international cooperation between specialists, institutions, organizations and universities in the area of environment and sustainable development.

The use of renewable energy sources and their projections toward the future in Cuba, are the main objectives on the agenda of specialists. The efficient use of renewable sources and the search for new ways of using these sources, will enable an increase in the use of renewable sources connected to the Cuban Electric System. CETER’s goal is for CIER 2025 to be a stage where the results achieved in the energy sphere can be exposed, a mission that the center has had since its foundation on December 13, 1992.

CIER 2025 Themes
I. Renewable energy sources (RES), hybrids and energy storage: Wind, Photovoltaic, solar-thermal, hydro-power, biomass, biogas, marine systems, hydrogen, fuel cells, and energy storage systems. Stand alone and grid connected renewable energy systems. The RES in local development and local policies. RES management, business and
financing models. Role of the RES in transport. The RES in smart microgrids.

II. Energy saving, management and efficiency: Energy management, energy efficiency and saving (electricity grids, combustion, boilers, flow machines and power generation systems). Exergy analysis, cogeneration, combined systems, air-conditioning and refrigeration, energy efficient appliances, rational use of water, tensioactives and emulsions as fuels. Supply networks optimization. Energy planning. Sustainable built environment. Cogeneration systems. Alternative engines

III.  Energy management and saving in transport: Conventional and alternative fuels, storage systems, hybrid vehicles, alternative transport systems: animal traction, alternative engines, electrical vehicles, wind powered, solar powered, compressed air systems and others

IV. Energy, science, technology and Society: Legal frameworks and regulatory bodies, financial schemes and incentives, programs: international, regional and local, climate change, meteorology, science and technology, Life Cycle Analysis (LCA), eco-tourism, permaculture, ecology and development, society and development.

V. Culture and Energy Education: Energy education programs of all levels, short courses postgraduate. Education in engineering systems, information and communications systems, TICs, promotion, publications and mass media, specialized institutions, research in energy education, art and culture.

CIER 2025 and SUIMA 2025 will be held within the framework of the II International Conference on Renewable Energy Sources, Energy Efficiency and the Environment (JIFREEEMA). All participants will have the right to attend both events. Among the activities scheduled during this International Conference, different workshops related to the topic will be held, including a Workshop dedicated to the State Plan of the Republic of Cuba to Confront Climate Change (Tarea Vida), the III Workshop on Business Opportunities, and the II Workshop on Circular Economy and Sustainability.

Within the frame of this conference, several workshops regarding to the different subjects of CIER2025 will carry out: VIII International Workshop on Wind Energy, VI International Workshop on Saving, Efficiency and Energy Management, IV International Workshop on Photovoltaic Solar Energy, III Workshop on Biomass, VI Workshop on Energy, Science, Culture and Energy Education, III International Workshop on Business Opportunities and II Circular Economy Workshop

Exhibition space
Make your mark, spread your achievements and/or promote your company! We offer you an exhibition space in which exponents of all kinds of products, services and research in the energy sector will participate, both from the private and state sectors.

We offer you the opportunity to be a sponsor of this International Conference, which will bring you other opportunities for your company to showcase the products and services you have.

CIER 2025 and SUIMA 2025 will provide an excellent setting to share experiences and create synergies in the face of the challenge of achieving sustainable energy development.
