ETRI 2023 Excellence Award
This thematic track involves the restoratin of native vegetation, expansion of integrated agricultural systems and the restoration of pasture areas. In addition, the track also considers techniques to restore vegetation, re-establishing native species. In this way, the soil will accumulate a high biodiversity of plant substrates that should stimulate its microbial biomass, resulting in potential carbon fixation in the soil.
This thematic track focuses to create value from CO2 emissions through the design of integrated processes for CO2 capture and conversion. In this concept, CO2 is considered a valuable chemical building block for fuels and materials. This track also includes technologies used in CO2 storage in geological structures and other types.
This thematic track involves technologies or a set of technologies that associate biomass energy with carbon capture use and storage, a process always carried out on a large scale. With this it is possible to sequestre carbon from the atmophere. Works that present the technologies and their contribution to building a positive public perception of BECCUS influencing the design of public sustainability politicies for the Brazilian energy systems are included.
The Greenhouse Gas (GHG) Programme is dedicated to study technologies related to Measurement and quantification of GHG emissions; Mitigation of GHG emissions, such as, pneumatic machines and devices in general, Chemical looping combustion and Oxy-fuel combustion; Adsorption systems for CO2 capturing from flue gases; Deep eutectic solvents for CO2 capture from flue gases; and Membranes for CO2 capture from flue gases.
This thematic track is related to the development of documents for climate change, sustainable and decarbonization fields, such as requirements standards, specifications and guides, which can be used to consistently ensure that material, products, processes and sevices are suitable for its purposes. This track also supports policies to provide the energy transition and societal engagement, achieved by the understanding of the social perception and acceptance of all stakeholders as well as the lay public, establishing an open dialogue with society. Works and studies in these areas are key to support technology transition and implementation.
This track intends to receive papers to discuss environmental impact and social aspects of Energy Transition including but not limited to gender and justice issues, energy access and safety, poverty aliviation, women participation, development of economic activities among others.
Economic papers of energy transition, including economic feasibility of renewables and non renewables, as well as how carbon credits can contribute to Energy Transition feasibility. What are the challenges and benefits for policies related to carbon credits, as well as SWOT analysis.
This track involves energy management as an opportunity to enable organizations across all sectors to realize on-going energy consumiption reducion and related GHG emissions reduction. This thack includes activities and technologies for estalishment, implementation and maintanance of energy management systems, monitoring and measuring energy performance for continual improvment; identifying, quantifying, verifying, validating and reporting energy performance improvements; energy security; energy savings calculations; terminology, competencey and conformity assessment in this field.
This thematic track seeks to present innovative and sustainable solutions focused on the decarbonization of electrical power systems. It includes but not limited to aspects such as eco-efficient materials, increased availability and efficiency of electricity production, optimization of distributed energy resources and integration with agriculture, digitalization of eletricity.

Abstract
The presentation will draw on the speakers own experience in taking two companies out of University research into commercial development, and the important role that academic research can play in creating technology, jobs and value. This will be discussed in the context of the role that electrochemical technologies such as fuel cells, electrolysers and batteries, can play in the low carbon transition, and how this supports the increased production and utilisation of hydrogen and its carriers as a green fuel.
