Abstract Submission

Abstract Submission for an Oral or Poster Presentation at UKES 2026 in Edinburgh will open soon

Our conference covers a broad range of topics, allowing for a comprehensive exploration of the sector. We invite abstracts for oral and poster presentations from a wide range of topics relating to energy storage, with the main themes of the conference:

Hydrogen & Other Fuels
Electrical Energy Storage
Thermal & Mechanical Storage
Systems & Integration
Materials for Storage
Policy & Markets

All submissions will be reviewed by the scientific committee. Successful submissions will be invited to present an oral or poster presentation, and will receive further guidance on their presentation.

Oral presentations will be divided into groups by conference theme. Presenters will have approximately 15 minutes to present, including Q&A. Unsuccessful oral abstracts may be offered the chance to alternatively present a poster.

Posters will be A1 in size (portrait or landscape, A0 can be accommodated in portrait orientation only), displayed throughout the conference, assessed during a dedicated session, and prizes awarded.

At least one author must register for every contribution.
