Open Access Policy for Proceedings and Publishing Partnership with “Biomass and Bioenergy”

Open Access Policy for Proceedings

With just 3 weeks to go, preparations are intensifying, both on the organisation side and of course for the authors working on the latest results for their presentations and papers. To motivate you further, four quick points:
  • EUBCE is confirmed as THE biomass scientific event with + 800 presentations plus 5 Parallel Events and 5 Workshops

  • The proceedings have moved to a full free access policy and will be searchable online (and citable online) as soon as they are published. This underlines our commitment to prioritising quick and open access to high quality scientific results

  • The final papers included in the EUBCE Proceedings are indexed in Scopus (from the 2016 edition).

  • The visual (poster) sessions are a highlight for many and arguably the best place for networking at the Conference. The prestigious Poster Awards will be a feature again this year and will be highlighted on our social media channels

Publishing Partnership with “Biomass and Bioenergy”

Elsevier is proud to announce its publishing partnership with the European Biomass Conference Conference (EUBCE) for the 6th year running.

Through the arrangement selected top research papers from the event are published in Biomass & Bioenergy, the high impact, international journal for the latest research in biomass, from original research, through to practical application.

A selection of top papers from EUBCE are rigorously peer-reviewed. With the publishing partnership in place, EUBCE shows that it is THE meeting place for cutting edge researchers to exchange ideas and present the latest progress in biomass development, technology and applications.
