I INTERNATIONAL SYMPOSIUM ON ENERGY AND METEOROLOGY
In the face of the global challenges of climate change and energy transition, the International Symposium on Energy and Meteorology (SIEME) in 2025 will be an essential space for the exchange of scientific and strategic advances in the sector. Bringing together experts and leaders from the Americas and other continents, the event will address the role of resilience and innovation in renewable sources as foundations for energy security amid the increase in extreme weather events.
In response to the growing relevance of the topic and the success of the two previous editions, held in workshop format, this event expands its scope to an international symposium format. With a program that includes short courses, lectures, roundtables and poster sessions, the symposium will explore important topics such as AI and its application in renewable energies, impacts of extreme events in the energy sector, challenges and innovations in the energy transition, energy and sustainability and public policies, among others.
The symposium aims to establish scientific cooperation networks and encourage the development of policies and technologies that ensure a sustainable energy transition adapted to climate realities. The choice of Maceió, with its strategic coastal position, will allow exploring innovations applicable to regions particularly susceptible to environmental changes.
MESSAGE FROM THE ORGANIZING COMMITTEE
The International Symposium on Energy and Meteorology (SIEME) will be the leading scientific and technological event focused on energy transition and resilience in 2025. This first edition of SIEME, to be held in Maceió, Alagoas, from August 20 to 22, 2025, will bring together experts, researchers, policymakers and industry professionals to explore sustainable and innovative energy solutions. The event aims to foster the exchange of experiences and knowledge between the academic community, decision-makers and funders, strengthening collaboration to address climate challenges and advance the energy transition.
SIEME 2025 is organized at an international level to cover pressing topics such as renewable technology integration, energy infrastructure adaptation, and development of policy strategies to increase climate resilience. The symposium promises to set a milestone in the discussion of resilient and sustainable energy practices.
One of the main objectives of SIEME 2025 will be to prepare an official report, with recommendations that will be sent to COP30 in Brazil, contributing to the formulation of global energy and climate policies.
Therefore, on behalf of the Institute of Atmospheric Sciences of the Federal University of Alagoas and other partner institutions, we would like to invite everyone to participate in the first edition of SIEME
