The European Society for Quantum Solar Energy Conversion announces the 35th Workshop on Quantum Solar Energy Conversion
(QUANTSOL 2025 Winter workshop) and invites experts in the various fields of conversion of solar photons to electrical or chemical energy to submit short abstracts to enable the organizing committee to define the workshop program.
The workshop will focus on new concepts, recent developments, radical ideas, and unsolved problems in the fundamentals of conventional and unconventional photovoltaic, photoelectrochemical, photochemical and photobiological energy conversion.
The number of participants is limited to a maximum of 40 participants, in order to guarantee the opportunity for intense discussions on quantum solar energy conversion between experts from various fields.
Conference Location :
As in 2023 and 2024, the workshop will take place in the Mesnerhaus in Rauris, about 5 min walk from the Hotel Rauriser Hof:
The Quantsol 2025 Workshop will be organized by
