LASU-SDGs to Host 3rd International Conference on Renewable Energy Research and Applications

The Lagos State University Centre for the Actualisation of the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (LASU-SDGs), in collaboration with the United Nations Information Centre (UNIC), Abuja, has announced the 3rd International Conference on Renewable Energy Research and Applications.

The announcement was made by the Director of LASU-SDGs, Dr. Teslim Ojuromi.

The conference, themed “Renewable Energy Research and Applications, 2025”, will bring together researchers, engineers, manufacturers, policymakers, and practitioners from both public and private sectors to exchange knowledge and explore innovations in renewable energy. The event is scheduled to take place on Tuesday, 26th and Wednesday, 27th August 2025, at the Aderemi Makanjuola Lecture Theatre, Lagos State University, Ojo, Lagos.
