2nd International Conference on Energy Geotechnics (ICEGT 2020)
September 20-23, 2020
Hosted by: University of California San Diego, La Jolla, CA, USA
Held under the auspices of Technical Committee 308 on Energy Geotechnics of the International Society for Soil Mechanics and Geotechnical Engineering
Conference Overview
With ever increasing energy demand and related climate change implications, the development of sustainable energy systems based on integrated schemes of energy production, transport, transfer, and storage is an important challenge to society. The broad and emerging area of Energy Geotechnics has the potential to address this challenge from multiple perspectives. Energy Geotechnics integrates concepts from geotechnical engineering and geomechanics with cross-disciplinary collaborations with geology, hydrology, geophysics, geochemistry, petroleum engineering, and energy policy.
Building upon the 1st International Conference on Energy Geotechnics in Kiel, Germany, this conference will provide a platform for interaction and communication for academic and non-academic parties, including researchers and practitioners in the broad areas within Energy Geotechnics. The conference will also provide a venue for innovative technology transfer.
The San Diego area offers various research institutions, government organizations, and companies in this research field and is an excellent location for international research exchange. It is a very convenient place to travel with favorable weather.
