PAPER SUBMISSION REQUIREMENTS

All submitted papers must be original works that have not been published previously, nor are they under review by any other journal or conference. Plagiarism of any kind is strictly prohibited, and the author shall bear full responsibility for the originality of the paper.

Papers should be written in English, adhering to academic norms and standard formatting. The structure should include abstract, keywords, introduction, methodology, results, discussion, conclusions, and references.

The length of the paper should be 6-10 pages (including references), typeset in double spacing, with 12-point font (Times New Roman), and margins of 2.5 cm on all sides.

Papers must include the authors' full names, affiliations, contact information (email address, phone number), and a 200-300 word abstract, as well as 3-5 keywords.

SUBMISSION DEADLINE AND METHOD

Submission Deadline: September 1, 2026

Submission Method: Abstracts of all papers should be submitted electronically through the Workshop official submission system (link: TBA). Please select the corresponding topic range when submitting, and name the paper file as "Topic Range X_Author Name_Institution.pdf" (e.g., Topic Range 1_Zhang San_XX University.pdf).

REVIEW PROCESS

All submitted papers will undergo a rigorous peer review process by the Workshop Academic Committee. The review will focus on the originality, academic value, technical feasibility, and relevance to the Workshop themes. The review results will be notified to the corresponding authors via email within 4-6 weeks after the submission deadline.

IMPORTANT NOTES

Abstracts of accepted papers will be included in the Workshop Brochure, and selected excellent papers will be recommended to core international journals for further review and publication. Failure to register before the registration deadline will result in the paper being excluded from the Proceedings. For questions related to paper submission, please contact the Workshop Secretariat via email: xxx@xxx (TBA).

We look forward to receiving your high-quality papers and welcoming you to attend the Workshop to share academic insights and promote cooperation in the field of energy clean conversion and carbon neutrality!
