Power and Energy

Calling for young researchers and professionals in the power and energy industry to join us for this special webinar! Come and learn how you can benefit from IEEE and GIGRE for career-boosting.

Efforts in the electric power sector to replace fossil fuel with renewables and nuclear will help to reduce emissions and large scale Electric Vehicle deployment will help, but question remains – how will the EV be powered?

This talk will highlight the importance of dynamic estimation and control of power networks for their stable operation. It will discuss both centralised and decentralised options with future research challenges and opportunities highlighted.

The first part of this seminar will provide an introduction to power quality concerns, by reviewing definitions, standards, sources of power quality problems, and available mitigating solutions. In the second part, an overview of ongoing research projects in this area will be provided. The main topics addressed are: modelling of power electronics converters for harmonic assessment, harmonic mitigation, deep learning applied to power quality analytics, power quality in dc microgrids and power quality assessment for tidal energy projects.

This lecture will look at the historic developments of HVDC technologies and introduce the applications of HVDC and HVDC grid technologies in renewable energy integration and energy distribution. It will also consider future developments in the context of energy internet and energy integration.

The IEEE Power & Energy Society Student Branch Chapter at The University of Manchester presents the annual Manchester Energy and Electrical Power Systems Symposium MEEPS 2020: “Envisioning the Power and Energy Systems in Industry 4.0 era”.

The manufacturing of transformers is integrated into a global supply chain. This presentation will walk through the quality assurance process for the transformer during its manufacture.

The IEEE PES Women in Power Committees of UK and Ireland and Chile are proud to invite you to the first joint webinar of 2021 on The Future of Hydrogen – Outlooks in Chile and the UK and Ireland. This will be an excellent opportunity to find out more about what it takes to reach carbon neutrality with the help of hydrogen and other low carbon technologies in transport, from the perspectives of the two countries.

The IEEE PES Student Branch Chapter at UoM and Women in Power in UK&I are pleased to invite you to this year’s PES Day Celebration where we have the pleasure of hosting three female leaders in the power and energy field, sharing their views on sustainability and the importance of societies such as the IEEE Power and Energy Society. 

The UK and Ireland PES Chapter in conjunction with the IEEE Student Branch Chapter at Northumbria University will have the pleasure of hosting two PES Day Webinars: the young professional talk "How to Get Published with IEEE" by Edward Wong and a technical talk "Smart Microgrids" by Dr Mousa Marzband.
