(WES-CUE) 2017.
Rapid urbanisation is elevating energy demand to unprecedented levels, with cities accounting for about three-quarters of the world’s energy consumption. The ability of cities to break away from energy- and carbon- intensive development and move towards high energy efficiency and sustainable practices will be a major factor in shaping global economic security and climate-resilience.
The WES-CUE 2017 Joint Conference will convene engineers and scientists from multiple disciplines, energy specialists, urban planning specialists, environmental and water specialists, academia, financiers, manufacturers, policy makers, researchers and business leaders from diverse industries around the world in Singapore. As a rapidly urbanising city-state with limited resources, Singapore has become a unique urban energy solutions ‘living lab’, providing the ideal setting for international sustainability-centric discussions.
