The Energy and Environment Specialty Group (EESG) of the American Association of Geographers (AAG) is pleased to announce the 4th Annual Energy Geography Conference, to be held virtually on Saturday, January 25th, 2025 from 11am-3pm ET. This half-day event will include a keynote talk, paper presentations, and a panel discussion on energy geography research and practice.

Farhana Sultana (Professor, Geography and the Environment at Syracuse University) will deliver the opening keynote address. Later in the day, we'll hear from a panel of energy scholars and practitioners working in non-academic sectors on how they translate theory into action.

The Energy Geography Conference welcomes everyone, regardless of career stage, from graduate students to seasoned energy geographers (broadly defined). Building on the success of previous conferences, we intend for this to be a welcoming, inclusive, and friendly space where we can meet, engage, share ideas, collaborate, and strengthen our EESG community. In light of the intended interactive nature of this conference, it is a professional expectation for participants to engage throughout the event. Moreover, presenters are required to submit their presentation materials in advance of the conference.
