Call for Papers! SETI 2026 Annual Workshop
SETI invites submissions of research manuscripts and extended abstracts (deadline: May 03, 2026) for its Eleventh Annual Workshop, featuring a June 29, 2026 in-person session in Lisboa and a virtual workshop in late July, with a focus on emerging priorities in sustainable energy transitions.
Workstreams
Powering Productivity and Healthy Communities
Communities without access to sufficient, reliable energy face reduced economic and human capital development opportunities. We are demonstrating how differences in energy access translate into benefits for households and societies, discovering how households adapt to outages, and how power costs and efficiency programs impact productivity.
About the James E. Rogers Energy Access Project at Duke
The James E. Rogers Energy Access Project at Duke focuses on building knowledge and networks to inform key decision-making related to energy poverty. It brings world-class researchers to bear on the highest priority questions of the day and supports policy-makers, project developers, investors, civil society, and impacted communities in driving energy system development and transformation.
