International Conference on Energy Conversion & Storage (Orcas)

About Orcas

Welcome to the 2024 Orcas conference! We are excited to be at the amazing IslandWood facility on Bainbridge Island this year. Our organizing team is working hard to bring together a compelling conference schedule with leaders in clean energy research and technology as well as plenty of opportunities to interact with them, and amongst ourselves during seminars, workshops, and career panels.

Bringing our community together to push the scientific boundaries in clean energy is now more important than ever, and the opportunities to network in a meaningful way during this two day event – priceless.

On behalf of the organizing team for this year’s Orcas conference:
Jungwon Choi, Matthew Golder, June Lukuyu, Douglas Reed, Julie Rorrer, Shijing Sun, Shuai Zhang, Danica Hendrickson, Corin Shelley-Reuss, and Madelynne Zornes.
