The ICWEE’2013 is a high-level international conference emerging as
one of the best platforms for academic exchanging, finding potential cooperation
opportun ities, accelerating the transformation and promoting achievements.
It provides a forum for researchers as well as practitioners to address recent research
results and to discuss various technical issues in energy, water, and environment.
A number of leading practitioners, policy makers and researchers will also be invited
to deliver keynote lectures.
