Call for Papers! SETI 2026 Annual Workshop

The Sustainable Energy Transitions Initiative (SETI) invites submissions of research manuscripts and extended abstracts for its Eleventh Annual Workshop.

Submission deadline: May 03, 2026

Dates & Location:
In-person meeting: June 29, 2026
Lisboa, Portugal | 12:00 PM – 04:00 PM (local time)
(Exact location will be shared with registered participants)

Virtual meeting: Late July 2026 (date TBD)

The 2026 SETI events bring together researchers, policymakers, and practitioners working on energy access and sustainable energy transitions in low- and middle-income countries, through a half-day in-person workshop ahead of WCERE 2026 and a virtual workshop in late July.

We welcome submissions of full papers or extended abstracts (up to 1,000 words). While all relevant contributions are encouraged, this year places particular emphasis on emerging SETI priorities, including plastic waste burning as a fuel, energy poverty, cooking and heating transitions, off-grid and grid electricity systems, renewable energy impacts, the energy-gender nexus, air pollution and energy technologies, and inclusive and just energy transitions.

Full details and submission information are available at the link above.
