Home to some of the largest and most diverse energy-related companies, and more than 30,000 energy industry professionals, Charlotte has been dubbed the "New Energy Capital" of North America. It will also be the destination for the 9th International Symposium on Power Electronics for Distributed Generation Systems (PEDG 2018).
Hosted by UNC Charlotte's Energy Production and Infrastructure Center (EPIC), the symposium, sponsored by IEEE Power Electronics Society and organized by the PELS Technical Committee on Sustainable Energy Systems will provide a venue for power electronics experts to present the results of their cutting-edge research and learn what is in store for the future of the electric power grid. PEDG 2018 will feature keynote speeches, tutorials, and regular technical sessions on theory, analysis, design and development, testing, deployment and impact of power electronics for distributed generation, energy storage, and sustainable energy resources.
