Celebrating PELS Day
Around the World

O

n 20 June 2019, the IEEE
Power Electronics Society
(PELS) Day was celebrated
at PELS-sponsored conferences and
Chapters all around the world. To
celebrate this event, a cake was cut at
the IEEE Transportation Conference
and Exposition in Novi, Michigan (Figure 1). At Wireless Power Week
(WPW) in London, the day was
marked by holding the WPW2019 banquet in a venue equipped as an imagined secret laboratory of Prof. Nikola
Tesla. It was a great event, and all had
a memorable time. Many are posting
about it on Twitter and Facebook, said
the organizers.
In Toronto, the day was observed
at the IEEE Workshop on Control
and Modeling for Power Electronics. At Aalborg University, Denmark,
the PELS Student Branch Chapter
(SBC) celebrated with a barbecue
and a technical seminar on power
electronics. Similar celebration announcements also came from the
IEEE Estonia Section joint Industrial
Electronics Society (IES)/PELS Chapter at Tallinn, Estonia, and the joint
Industry Applications Society (IAS)/
IES/PELS Chapter in Trondheim, Norway. "Advances in Power Electronic
Converters for Residential Renewable
Energy Systems" was the topic for the
members of Estonia Chapter. "Grid
Integration of Electric Vehicles: Wired

and Wireless Solutions" by Prof. Udaya Mandawala from the University of
Auckland, New Zealand, was the subject of interest of the Norway Chapter.
Other PELS global Chapters organized workshops, seminars, and
tours for members. For example,
the IAS/IES/PELS joint Chapter
in Kerala, India, organized an industrial visit to Keltron, a maker of
electronics products in Kerala. Approximately 50 participants took

pa r t i n t h i s t ou r. O t her I ndia n
Chapters that celebrated the day,
included the Mumbai and New Delhi Chapters. The IES/PELS joint
Mumbai Section Chapter hosted a
technical webinar, "Reliable Power
Electronics-A n Enabler for Renewable Energy Generation and
Utilization," by Prof. Huai Wang,
associate professor and vice leader
of the Efficient and Reliable Power
Electronics Research Program,
Aalborg University, Denmark. In
the joint New Delhi Chapter at
Jamia Millia Islamia, a technical
