The 6th AIGE/IIETA International Conference and 15th AIGE 
2021 Conference on "Energy Conversion, Management, 
Recovery, Saving, Storage and Renewable Systems" is 
organized under the joint auspices of the AIGE and IIETA 
with the aim of providing technical information to their 
members and to the scientific and industrial community at 
large.
Traditionally the joint Conferences will give the 
opportunity to discuss the state of the art and to present 
experimental, analytical and numerical results in Energy 
Conversion Systems, in Energy Management, in Energy 
Recovery Systems, in Energy Saving Techniques, Energy 
Storage Systems and Renewable Systems, with a particular 
attention to the engineering, environmental and economic 
aspects.
After unprecedented COVID-19 pandemic the Conference 
Organizing Commitee has been felt the need to introduce a 
new conference topic regarding the impact of virus 
diffusion in the energy context. In our intentions this 
section is focused in the study of virus diffusion 
mechanisms,  new design and management methodologies for 
energy systems with the aim to mitigate virus transmission 
and  to the economic aspects related to the previous 
issues.
The following list of topics indicate topics that fall 
within the aim of the conference.
