SWC 2015 will continue a long tradition of connecting the renewable energy research and academic community with decision makers, financiers, and practitioners. SWC 2015 will provide the most up-to-date information on renewable energy technology trends and breakthroughs, global and regional policies, and market opportunities. The Congress will feature a broad spectrum of technical presentations on the latest renewable energy developments, plenary and keynote addresses from global experts, workshops and discussion forums, and a variety of networking and social events. ISES is committed to achieving the vision of 100% renewable energy for all, used efficiently and wisely. Achieving such a vision will require a transformation of our energy system, addressing technology developments, innovative financing, political will, and, most important, community acceptance of these transformative technologies. In addition, for this vision to become a reality, we must address gender engagement, community involvement, and public education. SWC 2015 will offer many examples of progress in all of these areas, and challenges that remain.

Dr. David Renné, President International Solar Energy Society It is a great pleasure and honor for us to invite you to the forthcoming the Solar World Congress 2015 which will be held on November 8 to 12, 2015 at EXCO, Daegu, Korea. We aim to help you accomplish ISES's objectives of developing and expanding renewable energy technologies throughout the world. The Solar World Congress in 2015 would provide an excellent opportunity for renewable energy experts and companies from many nations to meet their colleagues, and offer visitors a chance to discover and enjoy Korean culture during your stay. Since the issues of global warming and oil shock have been considered, utilization of renewable energy and development of its technologies has been concerned all over the world. Based on our successful experience of hosting the SWC1997 in Korea, we expect to achieve outstanding results through the Solar World Congress in 2015, encouraging international colleagues to develop and deploy the renewable energy technologies in the world. Korea boasts an enticing blend of modern and traditional culture, warm hospitality and collection of tempting food. In particular, Daegu has been designated as solar city, in recognition of its efforts to apply the renewable energy technology into their daily life. It is a pivotal city surrounded by UNESCO World Cultural Heritage sites - Andong Folk Village, Yangdong Folk Village, Seokguram Grotto, Bulguksa Temple and Tripitaka Koreana. Daegu is at the heart of Buddhist and Confucian traditions and is therefore a perfect place to appreciate the true character of Asia.

  • Bulguksa Temple, South Korea
    Bulguksa Temple, South Korea Bulguksa is often regarded as the 'Museum Without Walls' Very few structures around the world can match the architectural beauty and aesthetic appeal of the Bulguksa Temple in South Korea. Located in Gyeongju city, often referred as the 'Museum Without Walls', this 8 th-century Buddhist temple is a delicately constructed masterpiece. The temple is known for its immense religious significance. The wooden structure of the temple rests on a raised platform of stone. At this temple complex, you experience the spiritual enlightenment your soul yearns for. History The construction of the Temple started during the reign of King Beop-Heung of Silla Kingdom in 5 th century AD. It was completed in 774 AD under the dominion of King Hye-Gong and got its present name – Bulguksa Temple. Several renovations took place over the next few centuries. Bulguksa is believed to be designed by the legendary architect Kim Daeseong. UNESCO enlisted this temple and the Seokguram Grotto as a World Heritage Site in 1995. What to Do at Bulguksa Temple ? Visiting Bulguksa Temple is akin to witnessing the richness of Buddhist art along with the ancient culture and architectural assets. The temple complex houses relics including Seokgatap and Dabotap (two of the most valued pagodas in the country), the Golden-seated Amita Figure, and the Vairocana Buddhist Figure. Theses two relics were designated as the national treasure of Korea in 1962. The Dabotap and Seokgatap pagodas stand at a height of 10.4 meters and 8.2 meters respectively. These two relics separate the Mauve Mist Gate called Jahamun and the hall housing the Sakyamuni Buddha known as Daeungjeon.

  • South Korea – 2016
    South Korea { 2016 This year the annual conference I usually go to, ISMD (International Symposium on Multiparticle Dynamics) was on Jeju Island, South Korea. After some grumbling about the high travel cost, it was agreed that I could go. After some searching I found the cheapest flights to be flying from Amsterdam to Seoul and returning from Osaka, Japan, unfortunately not by a direct flight but with a transfer in Paris. Then started intensive planning of sightseeing in Korea before the conference and Japan after. I discovered that there is now a Michelin Green Guide for South Korea and also one for Japan. They were, together with intensive Googling, very helpful in planning the trip. Wednesday, 17 August. At Schiphol it seemed as though no one was flying. There were almost no lines at security or at passport control. Perhaps it was due to the lateness of the flight, which was scheduled to depart, and in fact did depart, at 21:35. The plane left from the far end of the E-pier, which was nice in that it gave you a bit of movement before being cooped up in a full 747 for 10 hours. I had checked a suitcase and hence had only a small carry-on. So I didn't have to worry about boarding early enough to be sure of finding room in an overhead bin. Thursday, 18 August. We landed a few minutes ahead of the scheduled 14:40, at the end of a very long pier. Walking the length of the pier only got you to an underground tram, which brought you to another building.
