\nThe university, represented by the College of Engineering, announced the commencement of receiving scientific abstracts for the international conference \u00abSolar Energy Prospects in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia: Applications and Challenges,\u00bb which will be held from April 1-2, 2020. The university invited researchers wishing to participate in this international conference to submit their scientific research abstracts through the conference link. <\/span>;Abstracts will be received until October 31, 2019, and accepted abstracts will be announced on November 15, 2019.<\/span><\/p>\n \nThe conference aims to invite leading academics and researchers in solar energy applications and industry experts from Saudi Arabia and around the world to share experiences, challenges, and results. It also aims to enhance and develop promising solar energy technologies to support and achieve the goals of Saudi Vision 2030, as well as to contribute to achieving the goals of Saudi Vision 2030 in diversifying the economy currently based on oil, transforming the Kingdom from a leading oil exporting country to a sustainable energy exporting country.<\/span><\/p>\n \nFor his part, the head of the conference's scientific committee, Dr. Meshal Al-Mushaiqeh, Dean of the College of Engineering, explained that this conference is being held in line with the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia's Vision 2030, which aims to support the national economy, reduce reliance on oil, and raise awareness of the importance of solar energy as an abundant source of renewable energy in the Kingdom. The conference also covers the current status and developments in solar energy technologies and applications, including, for example, solar thermal energy, photovoltaics, and solar architecture, noting that the conference will focus on the use of solar energy engineering in various academic, governmental, and industrial applications in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, and on benefiting from past experiences in this vital field.<\/span><\/p>\n \nAl-Mushaiqih added that the conference will discuss a number of themes, including: generating electricity using solar energy, storing it, and desalination using it, as well as solar heating and cooling applications, passive and active solar applications in buildings, in addition to a section on solar energy applications in transportation and their management in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia.<\/span> <\/span><\/p>\n ","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" أعلنت الجامعة ممثلة بكلية الهندسة، عن بدء استقبال الملخصات العلمية للمؤتمر الدولي «آفاق الطاقة الشمسية في المملكة العربية السعودية: التطبيقات والتحديات»، والذي سوف ينعقد في الفترة من 1-2 إبريل 2020م، ودعت الجامعة الباحثين الراغبين في المشاركة في هذا المؤتمر الدولي لإرسال ملخصات الأبحاث العلمية، وذلك عبر رابط المؤتمر ;حيث يتم استقبال الملخصات حتى […]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":13585,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[9],"tags":[447],"topofweek-line":[],"sdgs":[107],"post-setting":[],"departments-list":[],"class_list":["post-13584","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-news","tag-null","sdgs-sdg7"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.qu.edu.sa\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/13584","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.qu.edu.sa\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.qu.edu.sa\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.qu.edu.sa\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.qu.edu.sa\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=13584"}],"version-history":[{"count":3,"href":"https:\/\/www.qu.edu.sa\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/13584\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":30134,"href":"https:\/\/www.qu.edu.sa\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/13584\/revisions\/30134"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.qu.edu.sa\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/13585"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.qu.edu.sa\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=13584"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.qu.edu.sa\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=13584"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.qu.edu.sa\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=13584"},{"taxonomy":"topofweek-line","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.qu.edu.sa\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/topofweek-line?post=13584"},{"taxonomy":"sdgs","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.qu.edu.sa\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/sdgs?post=13584"},{"taxonomy":"post-setting","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.qu.edu.sa\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/post-setting?post=13584"},{"taxonomy":"departments-list","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.qu.edu.sa\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/departments-list?post=13584"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
