Addressing the urgent challenges of climate change, energy, and the environment requires the innovative use of chemistry. The proposed Conference on Advances in Chemistry for Energy and Environment (CACEE-2024) aims to bring together diverse branches of chemistry, materials science, spectroscopy, and computational studies to further advance this dynamic field of research. Our conference aims to foster discussions and innovative solutions by exploring the current fundamental understanding of chemistry to address energy and environmental challenges. Additionally, we will focus on enhancing light-matter interactions, designing and synthesizing novel materials, and employing in-situ techniques to study chemical processes.
The inaugural CACEE-2018 conference was held at TIFR, Mumbai, from January 10-12, 2018, attracting 250 participants and 45 distinguished speakers from around the world. CACEE-2020 was hosted virtually by TIFR, Hyderabad, due to the Covid pandemic. The third conference, CACEE-2022, took place from October 31 to November 4, 2022 at TIFR, Mumbai, in collaboration with the "CO2India Network 1st Annual Meet," gathering 300 researchers and featuring 54 speakers across 19 sessions.
Looking forward to CACEE-2024 during 16-20 December 2024 at TIFR, Mumbai, our goal is to bring together researchers from various domains of chemistry. We aim to gather experts in novel material design, synthesis, and advancing mechanistic understanding through theory and spectroscopy. This conference will facilitate fundamental and technological advancements, and serve as a platform for exchanging ideas and fostering collaborations. The conference program will feature plenary, keynote, and invited talks by renowned researchers from around the world, along with oral and poster presentations by students and postdoctoral researchers.
Almost all leading chemistry researchers from various Indian institutes have accepted the invitation. We anticipate a gathering of approximately 100 speakers and 300 students.
