Happy Holidays from ECCE Global Chair Ralph Kennel - ECCE Global Series Announcement

ECCE Global Chair

Dear IEEE Power Electronics Society (PELS) members and friends:

As the calendar year 2011 is coming to a close, many of us are preparing to spend some time with family and friends, and to find the time to finish our paper digests for submission to one of the IEEE Energy Conversion Congresses and Expositions (ECCEs).  PELS volunteers and leadership have been very active in the last couple of years to develop the unique series of global power electronics congresses:  ECCE America, ECCE Asia, and ECCE Europe, in addition to our best conference, APEC.

Our annual ECCEs are increasing  in quality, size, and reputation.  All three 2012 congresses have the due date for the digest submission in January:

ECCE Global Congresses

IEEE ECCE Europe digest submission deadline: January 6, 2012
15th International Power Electronics and Motion Control Conference
EPE-PEMC 2012 ECCE Europe: www.epe-pemc2012.com
September 3-6, 2012; Novi Sad, Republic of Serbia

IEEE ECCE America digest submission deadline: January 15, 2012
4th IEEE Energy Conversion Congress and Exposition
IEEE ECCE 2012: www.ecce2012.org
September 16-20, 2012; Raleigh, North Carolina, USA

IEEE ECCE Asia digest submission deadline: January 20, 2012
7th International Power Electronics and Motion Control Conference
IPEMC 2012 - ECCE Asia: www.ipemc2012.org

Please consider submitting a paper to at least one of our ECCE congresses, and possibly to all three (not the same paper, of course). We hope to see you at one or all of our great conferences in 2012, and we promise that we will try to distribute the dates in 2013 more evenly.

We wish you all very productive holidays (finishing 1-3 digests) and truly happy and successful 2012 New Year!
