The symposium of “Sustainable Inorganic Energy Materials" was held in Beijing in Dec.18-19, 2010, sponsored by the Chinese Ceramic Society. The purpose of this symposium was to provide a scientific forum for discussion and exchange of ideas on the up-to-date research and development of technologies for renewable and energy efficient applications to achieve sustainable energy resources. Subjects will focus on the inorganic sustainable energy research progress of composite, preparation, properties and application, the main topics were solar battery, fuel cells, lithium batteries, sodium sulphur battery, thermoelectric materials and energy storage carbon materials, hydrogen storage material, ceramic material, mineral materials, super electrical capacitor materials, light catalysis film, the latest research achievements. The New Column of “Sustainable Inorganic Energy Materials" will be published in Issue No.4, 7, 10, 2011 in Journal of the Chinese Ceramic Society (JCCS).
