Welcome!

The 2025 APSRC will be held from the 2nd to the 4th Dec at the Advanced Engineering Building at the University of Queensland in Brisbane. 

---

The APSRC provides a regional forum for communicating research outcomes covering all aspects of solar-related research: PV devices, concentrating solar thermal, deployment & integration, solar heating & cooling as well as solar fuels and chemistry. With the theme of information, communication and integration, the conference provides a great opportunity for young researchers and professionals to share knowledge and network with the region’s leading innovators from industry and research institutions. 

The conference also provides a unique opportunity to combine the annual research reviews of Australia’s key solar research groups, representing researchers from around the region. (Image credit)

Academic Streams
The Conference is arranged into four streams where presenters can submit peer-reviewed Abstracts.

1. Photovoltaic Devices
2. Renewable Energy Deployment & Integration
3. Solar Buildings and Solar Heating & Cooling
4. Concentrating Solar Thermal & Process Heat and Chemistry

Industry Workshops
Once again there will be a series of Industry Workshops that have more of an industry focus, and where speakers are invited. Details of the Industry Workshops can be accessed here.

1. 1. PV forecasting and Firm Power Management
   2. PV recycling/Circular economy
   3. Building Integrated PV
   4. PV manufacturing
   5. Space PV
   6. Renewable heat for manufacturing, mining, and fuels
   7. Photovoltaic thermal (PVT)
   8. High comfort, low carbon lighting

Poster Session & networking events are also incorporated, covering all the research topics above, and provide an opportunity for solar researchers in the Region to meet and exchange ideas. Posters will be on display at dedicated sessions during the conference.

There is also limited financial assistance available for students who require it.
