Now in its 13\u1d57\u02b0 year, the International Conference on Emerging Energy & Process Technology (iCONCEPT 2026) continues to serve as a premier platform for postgraduate students, researchers, and industry leaders committed to advancing sustainable engineering. The conference bridges the gap between academic research and industrial practice, fostering meaningful collaboration among academia, government agencies, and the private sector. It provides an avenue to exchange cutting-edge knowledge, explore decarbonization strategies, and highlight breakthroughs in process intensification. As such, i-CONCEPT 2026 stands as a distinguished global forum where leading experts converge to shape the future of energy and process technology.<\/p>\n[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=”1_2″ _builder_version=”4.26.0″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_heading title=”Important Deadline” module_id=”deadline” module_class=”deadline” _builder_version=”4.27.4″ _module_preset=”c33f07d9-41e0-421a-8799-5799df695cce” title_level=”h2″ title_font=”Poppins|600|||||||” title_text_color=”#E09900″ title_font_size=”28px” title_line_height=”1.2em” custom_margin=”||10px||false|false” title_font_size_tablet=”28px” title_font_size_phone=”20px” title_font_size_last_edited=”on|phone” global_colors_info=”{}”][\/et_pb_heading][et_pb_text content_tablet=”<\/p>\n

One evening, while watching ice caps cascade into the ocean during a re-run of Frozen Planet, Dan suddenly realised he needed to do something to help. He quit his job the next day to join the global effort to reverse the climate crisis. While researching climate solutions, Dan came across Ocean Thermal Energy Conversion, or OTEC. It had the potential to provide affordable, clean energy to the Small Island Developing States that urgently need it. But developers had been distracted by huge, mega-scale OTEC systems. This inspired Dan\u2019s vision to start small and reduce tropical island nations\u2019 reliance on fossil fuels through OTEC. Using his experience in building exceptional teams, he assembled world-class OTEC and offshore engineering professionals and launched Global OTEC in 2017. He\u2019s been the main driver of the company\u2019s development, forged partnerships with intergovernmental organisations, and speaks regularly at UN events as an ocean energy authority.<\/p>\n[\/et_pb_toggle][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section][et_pb_section fb_built=”1″ admin_label=”Speakers” _builder_version=”4.27.4″ _module_preset=”default” custom_padding=”19px|0px|19px||true|” border_radii=”on|27px|27px|27px|27px” locked=”off” collapsed=”on” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_row module_id=”plenaryspeakers” _builder_version=”4.27.3″ _module_preset=”default” custom_margin=”|auto|1px|auto||” locked=”off” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”4_4″ _builder_version=”4.25.1″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_heading title=”Invited Speakers” module_id=”keynote” _builder_version=”4.27.4″ _module_preset=”c33f07d9-41e0-421a-8799-5799df695cce” title_level=”h2″ title_font=”Poppins|800|||||||” title_text_align=”center” title_text_color=”#111111″ title_font_size=”50px” title_line_height=”1.2em” custom_margin=”||10px||false|false” title_font_size_tablet=”28px” title_font_size_phone=”20px” title_font_size_last_edited=”on|phone” locked=”off” global_colors_info=”{}”][\/et_pb_heading][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row column_structure=”1_3,1_3,1_3″ custom_padding_last_edited=”on|desktop” disabled_on=”off|off|off” _builder_version=”4.27.4″ _module_preset=”048d8e79-b07f-439b-bd57-f41c14f0a56b” background_color=”#FFFFFF” custom_margin=”||30px||false|false” custom_padding=”27px|30px|27px|30px|true|true” custom_padding_tablet=”|30px||30px|false|true” custom_padding_phone=”|20px||20px|false|true” border_radii=”on|64px|64px|64px|64px” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”1_3″ admin_label=”Column” _builder_version=”4.25.1″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_image src=”https:\/\/research.utm.my\/che\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/45\/2026\/03\/Assoc-Prof-Ts-Dr-Faiz-Arith-Universiti-Teknikal-Malaysia-Melaka-Malaysia.png” title_text=”Assoc Prof Ts Dr Faiz Arith Universiti Teknikal Malaysia Melaka Malaysia” _builder_version=”4.27.4″ _module_preset=”default” border_radii=”on|190px|190px|190px|190px” locked=”off” global_colors_info=”{}”][\/et_pb_image][et_pb_heading title=”Assoc.
