PEDG 2013 - 2013 4th IEEE International Symposium on Power Electronics for Distributed Generation Systems (PEDG)

The symposiums of PEDG will become a regular conference sponsored by IEEE Power Electronics Society. This unique international symposium is a great opportunity for experts to present the state-of-the-arts in power electronics and distributed generation (DG) systems. The symposium features keynote speeches and regular technical sessions on the theory, analysis, design, test and deployment related to power electronics for distributed generation and renewable energy systems. We would be honored to have your input at the Syposium and contribution to the discussion on present trends, new challenges and future opportunities in key disciplines of power electronics and distributed generation technology.
