In response to the ever increasing interests and technological developments in environmentally friendly energy systems, the Organizing Committee are pleased to welcome you to The 5th International Symposium on Environment Friendly Energies and Applications (EFEA 2018) which will be held in Rome, Italy, on September 24-26, 2018. EFEA is a forum for bringing academics, scientists, engineers and industrial partners together to discuss the recent developments in the areas of environment friendly energies and their applications. The main theme of this symposium is on renewable and sustainable energy systems, hybrid transportation systems and energy security. The hosting institution will be the University of Rome "Sapienza", Faculty of Civil and Industrial Engineering, in close collaboration with the University of Valenciennes (Fr), the University of Northumbria (UK), and the University of L'Aquila (IT).
