Conference Highlights

The 2011 IEEE Industrial and Commercial Power Systems Technical Conference is a gathering of experts who work and conduct research in the industrial application of electrical systems. The 2011 Conference will have a full program of tutorials, technical papers, and working group meetings during the five days of the conference. You can view the program here.

Sunday, the first day of the conference, will feature meetings for the Technical Book Coordinating Committee, which is responsible for updating the entire IEEE Color Book series and the P3000 Working Group meeting.

On Monday, the working groups and technical committees hold a number of meetings devoted to developing and updating the IEEE Color Book Standards, which provide information about electrical power production, distribution and utilization in industrial and commercial power systems.  Conference attendees are encouraged to select the IEEE Color Books they are most interested in and join the working groups for those books.

On Tuesday and Wednesday, 30 selected technical papers will be presented by a wide variety of international authors. The papers will cover applications-related topics on power system engineering, power system protection, codes and standards, and energy systems.

On Thursday four half-day tutorials will be presented; two in the morning and two in the afternoon.

The conference will feature a social event that honors members of the IEEE Industrial and Commercial Power Systems Department. The Awards Luncheon on Wednesday recognizes the winners of the Prize Papers Awards, Standard Medallion Awards, and the Department Achievement Award.  This year there will also include the presentation for a long time IEEE IAS contributor who has been recently elevated to the status of IEEE Fellow.

Three additional social events are included; a Golf Scramble Sunday morning before the conference starts, the Welcome Reception on Sunday evening and the Evening Social on Tuesday night.
