About us - White Paper

The European Conferences on Supercritical CO2 (sCO2) were initiated in Vienna in 2016 by an informal committee which was composed of only a few members. In 2018, a formal conference committee was appointed, divided into a general committee and a local organisation team. The committee arranges the paper review process, registration, and agenda preparation and manages external contacts and the committee's representation, which also includes the website.
