Are you presenting a poster?

About the poster programme

1. What is a poster?

• Posters are A0-format visual presentations that expand upon an abstract in written detail. They are displayed in a designated area at the event, providing all delegates with accessible insights into the research or topic being presented.
• If your abstract was selected for a poster, you are required to create a poster file and an accompanying 3-minutes recorded presentation based on your submitted abstract.
• Posters are displayed in a dedicated poster area and are available for conference delegates and exhibition visitors to view throughout the event.
• We recommend that you are present at your poster during the breaks as this is the moment meet other delegates and answer their questions.

New this year: We’re introducing digital posters! Alongside traditional printed posters, you’ll find digital-only posters displayed on dedicated stations in the poster area. This format makes it simple for delegates to view your work on-screen and access your content conveniently.

2. Poster awards

• A Poster Committee (including members of the European Academy of Wind Energy and members of the Conference Programme Committee) will select the highest quality posters.
• The Committee will base their decision on the best combination of clear presentation and innovative content.
• The winners will be announced during the Poster Awards Ceremony. They will receive a complimentary full pass for the next WindEurope conference.

3. Full paper

• If your abstract has not been invited for a scientific publication or you have not applied for one upon submission of your abstract, as a poster presenter, you can still add a full paper to your presentation/poster. This optional full paper will not be peer-reviewed but will be included in the online conference proceedings of the event. See here for guidelines.

About your poster

If you have not submitted your poster by the deadline, we will automatically cancel your poster. It is not possible for you to bring your poster with you onsite.

1. Poster templates

• It is mandatory to use the official WindEurope templates. We do not accept any other format.
• Our templates are inspired by the ‘Better Poster’ initiative, which aims to make posters’ main takeaways more visible and help you stand out! Find out more here.

Poster templates

• Poster number (PO.XXX)
  • The WindEurope conference team will assign a poster number to each poster. This number is different from your abstract submission number. We will send you your unique poster number by email. Before submitting your files, make sure to include your poster number in your poster as indicated in the template.
• QR Codes

  • The WindEurope conference team will create two QR codes for each poster and we will insert them in your poster file once you have submitted it.

    The QR codes allow the conference delegates to:

    • download your poster in PDF;
    • view your recorded poster presentation.

2. Poster recording

• As a poster presenter, you are required to record a 3-minutes presentation. Posters without a recording will be considered as incomplete.
• You must submit the recording at the same time as the poster file.
• Recordings will be downloadable through a QR code (created and added by the WindEurope conference team).
• View the poster recording guidelines here.

3. Submitting your poster and recording

• You must submit your poster files as PowerPoint files through the presenters’ portal.
• Recordings must be submitted as separate files from the poster via WeTransfer or a similar tool to [email protected] – please do not include your recording in your poster file.
