SCOPE
The purpose of the first International Conference on Power
Engineering, Energy and Electrical Drives (POWERENG) is to
bring together researchers, engineers and practitioners from all over
the world, interested in the advances of power systems (energy and
electrical drives). Five simultaneous tracks will be held, covering
different aspects of Power Engineering, including Power Generation,
Transmission and Distribution; Power Electronics, Systems and
Applications; Electrical Machines and Adjustable Speed Drives;
Renewable Energy Sources and Technology and Education Papers describing
original work are invited in any of the scientific areas of the
conference.
Papers describing advanced prototypes, systems, tools and techniques
and general survey papers indicating future directions are also
encouraged.
Accepted papers, presented at the conference by one of the authors,
will be published in the Proceedings of POWERENG. Acceptance will be
based on quality, relevance and originality. Both full research reports
and work-in-progress reports are welcome. There will be both oral and
poster sessions. A short list of selected papers from POWERENG will be
published in a book by Springer.
There will be several invited keynote speakers.
Authors with experimental prototypes are encouraged to bring them along
to demonstrate their performance. An exhibition area, with technical
facilities, will be considered.
