ince 1991, every second year the IEEE Power Electronics Society
(PELS) has organized the technical long-range planning meeting
"Future of Electronic Power Processing and Conversion" (FEPPCON). FEPPCON IX was held 12-16 June 2017 in beautiful Kruger Park in South Africa (Figure 1). The overall goal of the meeting
was to discuss challenges, opportunities, and research directions beyond
2025 for power electronics and systems technology.
Interestingly, the meeting was held in the same location as the original
FEPPCON in 1991, where Prof. Daan van Wyk, honorary chair of FEPPCON
IX, gathered specialists from the field to discuss in a secluded environment what was needed to make power electronics technology more useful for modern society. In the intervening 25 years, this technology has
