About this Research Topic
The International Student Energy Summit 2019 is an interdisciplinary summit created for students by students. Our mission? To spearhead the energy transition towards a more sustainable and equitable future.
This year’s summit is held in London and over the course of four days, 650 delegates from all corners of the world will attend inspiring talks from +50 academic, industry and policy leaders. Our programme encompasses industry & technology, society & environment, markets & finance, and youth empowerment. We are the wave of change that is taking the energy world by storm.
The International Student Energy Summit 2019 vision is breaking barriers and stimulating discussion towards a sustainable future. The summit aims to inspire, empower and drive change. In order to achieve these aims we are offering delegates the opportunity to submit research abstracts which will be reviewed by a team of guest editors. The best abstracts will be invited to submit manuscripts to be published in a Research Topic: ‘Breaking Barriers: An Interdisciplinary Approach to the Energy Transition’.
The International Student Energy Summit 2019 champions an interdisciplinary approach and we encourage delegates to follow suit with their interdisciplinary research! You will have the opportunity to publish your work in the following speciality sections:

The 10 best abstracts will be invited to submit manuscripts which will be published in the special issue collection. The submission of abstracts is free of change, as is the manuscript. Article processing charges are only incurred upon acceptance of the manuscript to publication.
