September 23 - September 25

🕒 3 mins

CENTRIC will organise with several other projects a workshop at the 12th annual edition of Sustainable Places (SP2024) is a hybrid event, from 23rd to 25th September 2024, with the in-person sessions hosted in Luxembourg.

The speaker representing the CENTRIC project will be given by Francesco Malandrino from CNR, Consiglio Nazionale delle Ricerche. The workshop is co-organised with the projects: 6G-TWIN, COALESSCE, BeGEEN, and IN2CCAM.

This workshop aims to explore the connection between sustainability and 6G mobile networks, focusing on integrating environmental considerations into the design, deployment, and operation of future wireless communication systems. It will convene EU-funded collaborative projects to develop energy-efficient network architectures, renewable energy integration, life cycle assessments, eco-friendly materials, and policy frameworks. The goal is to catalyze advancements towards a more sustainable and environmentally responsible era of wireless communication, promoting innovative approaches, green technologies, and holistic strategies for minimizing the ecological footprint of 6G networks.

Contributing Projects: 6G-TWIN, BeGREEN, COALESCE, CENTRIC, 6Green, Zero-Swarm, 6G4Society and IN2CCAM

Key Information

Conference Scope

Sustainability targets and climate change objectives cannot be met without addressing buildings and the built environment at the building, district and urban scale including our transport and energy infrastructures. Renowned for showcasing results coming out of the EU Horizon 2020 and EU Horizon Europe Framework Programme via the participation of cutting-edge research and innovation projects, the scope of Sustainable Places is captured directly in its name. It involves designing, building and retrofitting the places we live and work more sustainably.

Conference Concept

Sustainable Places prides itself on being an ideal platform for the dissemination of research, the conduct of workshops, EU project clustering and networking between stakeholders of all types. SP2024 will be held over three days in a hybrid (digital + in-person) event format. Between opening and closing keynote sessions, parallel technical sessions and project-organized workshops will explore the various conference themes. Given world events we encouraged submissions on technology transfer, renewable energy implementations and energy security to facilitate actions that increase the rate of renovation and renewable energy implementations.
