Zero-Carbon Energy Kyoto 2012—Special Edition of the Joint Symposium "Energy Science in the Age of Global Warming" of the Kyoto University Global Coe Program and the Jgsee/Cee-kmut

The Global COE is setting out a zero-emission technology roadmap and is promoting socioeconomic studies of energy, studies of new technologies for renewable energies, and research for advanced nuclear energy. It has also established the Global COE Unit for Energy Science Education to support young researchers as they apply their skills and knowledge and a broad international perspective to respond to issues of energy and the environment in our societies. This book follows on the earlier volumes Zero-Carbon Energy Kyoto 2009, 2010, and 2011.
