Event Type : Trade Shows and Conferences

PowerUP Energy is a virtual conference and exhibition focusing on power electronics and energy trends.

As the world’s population grows, the demand for a new approach to energy also grows, pushing us toward more sustainable ideas. Engineering in the areas of energy is critical for the sustainability of the environment and the global economy.

Power devices will improve system performance in all high-voltage industrial applications, including energy-saving ones. The demand for innovative technologies and devices has grown as a result of the increasing importance of power quality in distribution systems and the widespread integration of renewable energy sources.

Given the amount of energy required by data centers, servers and mobile devices to transmit, store and cool data, the goal is to ensure the use of green electricity, avoid direct emissions and further reduce energy consumption. The growing need for power quality, together with the large-scale integration of renewable energy sources, has increased the demand for new control technologies and devices. Moreover, energy storage and power consumption are two important topics in several energy markets.

This event is bringing the latest developments in energy engineering, debated by global industry leaders across keynotes and technical talks. The conference is also dedicated to exploring how we can rapidly accelerate the pathway to net-zero carbon emissions. Join us at PowerUP: Energy, where we bring together the best and brightest in the industry to forge innovative pathways toward decarbonization and challenge the status quo, with several strategies and business models related to smart grid, renewable energy and electrification.

What to expect?

PowerUP Energy will dig into several key topics:

• Renewable energy and energy storage
• Sustainability assessment and eco-innovation
• Tools/test and measurement
• Solid-state technology

With a conference space and resource center, PowerUP Energy functions similarly to a live exhibition and conference.

The technical conference will include keynotes, panel discussions, technical presentations and tutorials on a variety of subject matters, including significant technical trends, market demand and new application areas. Along with the conference, there will be a resource center with microsites from top power electronics businesses and a live chat that will allow attendees to communicate directly with the staff.

Who should attend?

PowerUP Energy offers an opportunity for engineers, managers, executives, academia and students from all over the world to learn the latest technological advances and applications in power electronics and energy trends, and to connect with each other in our community. Test engineers working on power electronics equipment, marketers, sales professionals, and others involved in the business of power electronics will come away with actionable insights.

The latest trends and advances, from components to intelligent systems, are discussed by industry pundits and technology experts.

• Manufacturers and suppliers of components and assemblies used in power electronics
• Manufacturing, quality and test engineers involved with power electronics equipment
• Marketing, sales and anyone involved in the business of power electronics
• Compliance engineers testing and qualifying power electronics equipment or equipment that uses power electronics

Plenary Sessions

APEC Plenary Sessions are a long-standing tradition of addressing issues of immediate and long-term interest to the practicing power electronic engineer. Presentations typically feature invited distinguished professionals.

Technical Sessions

The technical program includes peer-reviewed papers that cover all areas of technical interest for the practicing power electronics professional. The rigorous review process highlights the most innovative technical solutions, and provides the highest quality possible.

Industry Sessions

Industry Sessions present information on current topics in power electronics from industry sources. In addition to the practicing power electronics professional, these sessions are of interest to system engineers/architects and business-oriented people such as purchasing agents, regulatory agencies, along with other people who support the power electronics industry.

Professional Education Seminars

In-depth discussion of important and complex power electronics topics are perfect for working professional in power electronics or related fields. Seminars are 3.5-hours in length (including breaks), range in the scope of topic, and can vary from introductory to advanced in technical level.

Exhibitor Presentations

Exhibitor Presentations highlight new products or initiatives that companies in the power electronics industry are developing, along with opportunities for attendees to interact with other companies in the industry.

RAP Sessions

RAP Sessions allow for exciting dialogue amongst attendees and presenters. Admission to all Rap Sessions is free with an Exhibits Only Registration.

Exposition

The APEC Conference hosts a three-day exposition featuring hundreds of companies serving the power electronics industry in a variety of capacities. Top manufacturers and service providers are on hand to help you explore the latest in technology and solutions.

Social Event

Every year, APEC hosts an evening reception that allows attendees to network and relax in an inviting location and celebrate the year’s accomplishments. The reception is included in Full Conference and Technical Session registration, or with an additional fee for all other conference registrants.

Spouse And Guest Activities

APEC welcomes the spouses and guests of APEC registrants to participate in conference activities as well as a variety of daytime and evening social activities. Additionally, a spouse and guest breakfast is provided one day of the conference.
