About Conference

Welcome to the official website of the 2nd International Tropical Renewable Energy (the 2nd i-TREC 2017). It will be held on October at Courtyard by Marriott Bali Nusa Dua Resort, Bali, Indonesia.

The 2nd i-TREC 2017 (International-Tropical Renewable Energy Conference) aims to promote an opportunity and challenge tropical renewable energy integrated with environmentally safe and economically sustainable, to create a theoretical base of the development, utilization, implementation for further application of tropical renewable energy sources. This is also to promote research in the field of development of tropical renewable energy and to facilitate an exchange of new ideas in these fields and to create a dialogue between scientists, professor, industrial and also practitioners. The main theme of 2nd i-TREC 2017 is “Towards Tropical Renewable Energy Innovation and Technology Integration”.  The 1st i-TREC 2016 papers has been published in AIP Conference Proceeding Volume 1826 and International Journal of Technology Volume 7 Issue 8 (SE) 2016 (indexed by SCOPUS).
