Introduction

The 2016 International Conference on Cogeneration, Small Power Plants and District Energy (ICUE 2016) on 14-16 September 2016 in Bangkok City, Thailand will be a venue to exchange research ideas, experiences, technical, social, financial, economic and policy issues covering advances in the Cogeneration (CHP), Small Power Plants (SPPs) and District Energy systems. Here, energy professionals, policy makers, researchers, members of the academe, engineers, members of the energy supply sector, etc., will have a platform to showcase research findings, technological innovations, transformative emerging technologies, and even to discuss burning global, regional and national issues in energy utilization for development and environment policies and programs. The ICUE 2016 Conference will present a general outlook on the global energy sector, worldwide and accordingly, issues such as Energy and Geopolitical Balances, Energy Policies Legislations and Practices, as well as technical matters such like Energy Efficiency, Renewable Energy Technologies, Developments in the Renewable Energy Market, Conventional Energy Technologies, Operation and Maintenance of Small Power Plants (SPPs), Cogeneration, Mini-Micro Cogeneration and Tri-generation Systems, Distributed power generation and smart grid systems, Environment and Recycling Systems, New Technologies and applications, Energy Trade, Energy Soft wares, Naturel Gas and Petroleum, ASEAN Economic community (AEC) Electricity grid and market integrations, Policy Regulatory Frameworks for CHPs and SPPs: Global, Continental, Regional and ASEAN contexts, Micro CHPs and SPPs for climate change challenges, Financing of Energy Projects and Energy Law will be dealt with both in national and international scale.
