Energy Access and Off-Grid Systems, IEEE Power Electronics Society Technical Committee on

Following on the success of Empower a Billion Lives, and a strong expression of interest in the technologies underlying energy access, and a burgeoning need for power systems with more autonomous control that can be implemented in a highly decentralized manner, Technical Committee - 12 is being formed by PELS to provide global leadership in this important area. Given below are some of the topics of interest:

Energy access solutions
Decentralized bottom-up grids
Self-organizing grids and microgrids
DC nanogrids
Hyper-efficient appliances, including CHP
Sensing, architecture, market, and business models for energy access
Ultra-automation in AC or DC microgrids
Autonomous inverters for inverter dominant grids
Real-time control of inverters to meet physical, market and cyber needs
Grid as an ecosystem

The above topics are rapidly gaining prominence and represent some of the emerging technical challenges that power electronics will face, and are at the heart of enabling successful solutions for energy access.
