DESCRIPTION:The sixth annual Winton Symposium will be held on November 9\,
  2017 at the Cavendish Laboratory on the theme of “Energy Storage and Di
 stribution”.\n\nStorage and distribution of energy is seen as the missin
 g link between intermittent renewable energy and reliability of supply.  C
 urrent technologies that are being deployed have considerable headroom for
  improvements in performance\, with the symposium speakers discussing some
  of the many new technologies that are being explored and how understandin
 g the basic science of these can accelerate their development.\n\nThe one-
 day event is an opportunity for students\, researchers and industrialists 
 to hear a series of talks given by world leading experts on a pressing glo
 bal issue. Topics include battery and fuel cell technologies for applicati
 ons ranging from information and communication technology (ICT) to transpo
 rt\, and advances in distribution through developments of superconducting 
 materials and high power electronics.  For an alternative future scenario 
 the status and prospects of nuclear fusion energy will also be reviewed.\n
 \nWith sustainability cutting across numerous disciplines\, the event is i
 ntended for an audience from a spectrum of backgrounds to come together an
 d join in the debate. There is no registration fee for the Symposium and c
 omplimentary lunch will be provided\, however due to the large demand for 
 places\, participants are required to register on-line via this link https

 rd Friend\, Cavendish Professor of Physics and Director of the Winton Prog
 ramme for the Physics of Sustainability and Dr Nalin Patel the Winton Prog
 ramme Manager.\n\nFor detailed schedule and further information follow lin
