SEB-25 Conference to Convene in Catania

The 17th International Conference on Sustainability in Energy and Buildings (SEB-25) is set to take place 17–19 September 2025, offering a vital platform for collaboration among researchers, policymakers, and industry professionals dedicated to sustainable building and urban energy systems.

 

Organized by KES International and co-organized by the University of Catania (UNICT), the conference will be chaired by Gianpiero Evola, the e-SAFE's technical manager. Both SEB-25 and e-SAFE share a strong focus on advancing sustainable building practices, energy efficiency, and innovative solutions for the decarbonization and resilience of the built environment.

 

Event Details

 

Participants will engage across a multidisciplinary agenda focusing on:

  • Sustainable design of buildings, neighborhoods, and cities (both built and natural environments)
  • Optimization and modeling methods
  • Smart energy systems tailored for smart cities
  • Green ICT (Information and Communications Technology) applications
  • Renewable energy topics including solar, wind, and wave technologies

 

One notable feature of the event is the inclusion of accepted papers in a volume of the KES Smart Innovation Systems and Technologies series published by Springer. This opportunity ensures that research presented at SEB-25 receives broad dissemination in the academic and professional communities.
