SolarPACES (Concentrating Solar Power, Thermal, and Chemical Energy Systems) is delighted to announce the SolarPACES 2025 Conference from September 23-26, 2025, in Almería, Spain.
SolarPACES is the premier international network advancing research, development, and commercial deployment of concentrating solar technologies.
This year we will be in Almería, Spain, which has been a key location for research into Concentrated Solar Technology (CST) since the early 1980s. Thanks to its climate and resources, Almería has a global reputation for solar energy research, helping to drive the growth of more sustainable energy solutions. As always, this conference will be an ideal opportunity to learn about new projects, research efforts, and new market options.

SolarPACES 2025 Call for Papers
If you wish to give a presentation, an extended abstract must be submitted electronically providing clear information that allows us to determine the significance and quality of your work. Your abstract will then be reviewed by the Scientific Committee. Review criteria include originality, scientific and technical quality of the results, and relevance to the conference topics. The abstract template which serves as a guideline is available here.
In addition, you are invited to upload a short abstract which will be visible in the internal area for registered participants. The first lines of the short abstract will be shown as a teaser in the program.
Please note that for this upcoming conference we again encourage the submission of full papers for accepted contributions for publication in the planned online proceedings, but do not require this. The organizing committee may request a justification for non-submission of full papers, including, for example, preliminary results that are currently being prepared for a journal publication or reviews of previously published work that have not been presented previously to this CSP community.
