I&CPS Tech Conference Featured Standards Refinement, First-Ever Green Computing Workshop

IAS held its 61st annual Industrial and Commercial Power Systems (I&CPS) technical conference in Montreal, Canada, in May. I&CPS is a forum for both experienced and younger engineers to share ideas, present findings from papers, and develop or update one of the most comprehensive series of IEEE standards.

During I&CPS, Standard Series 3000 working groups held numerous panels, presentations, and comment discussion sessions that addressed the review and publication efforts of the set.

A highlight was the debut of the Green Computing workshop, held on the first day of I&CPS. It featured expert speakers who are creating and maintaining data centers with significant environmentally friendly energy elements. This workshop was created for professionals involved in the design and operations of data centers that will have partial or significant green energy components. Speakers also focused on current approaches and standards, as well as future methodologies that will be guiding the green data centers of tomorrow.

IEEE ETFG 2025 - Grid Enhancing Technology Showcase - Call for Submissions

The Grid Enhancing Technology (GET) Showcase is an awards program recognising innovators developing solutions, prototypes, and technologies for grid-enhancing applications and future energy systems.

We welcome submissions that demonstrate bold ideas, practical solutions or creative approaches to improving the resilience, efficiency, and sustainability of power grids. Submissions may take the form of early-stage concepts, working prototypes, or applied technologies with clear potential for real-world impact.

ETFG 2025 conference has already attracted more than 700 submissions and will host delegates from across the globe. A high-profile judging panel made up of senior representatives from industry and academia will
review Showcase submissions. Selected finalists will present their ideas during the conference, with winners receiving certificates and premium prizes at the Gala Dinner.

Project Proposal due: Open now and accepted until 31 October 2025.
• Video/Poster due: 14 November 2025
• Finalists notified: On a rolling basis
• Showcase: 7–11 December 2025

IEEE Industry Applications Magazine – NEW Digital Edition!

The IEEE IAS Board has approved the addition of a NEW Digital Edition of IEEE Industry Applications Magazine. Beginning with this issue of the monthly IAS e-Newsletter, the Magazine Digital Edition will be available from a link at the end of every e-Newsletter issue. IAS members previously had access via a “Get Entire Issue Now” link from IEEE Xplore, but this was just a static flat PDF. The NEW Digital Edition includes navigation to selected articles from a Table of Contents Sidebar, a page turning feature, Zoom and download of individual articles, email authentication, access to back issues from the Home page and much more. We hope you test-drive the new Magazine Digital Edition.

We’d like to know what you think, so feel free to send Dave Durocher our Magazine Editor-in-Chief your feedback at [email protected].

When members log in using a new browser or device, the S1M system will automatically trigger a verification process by sending a confirmation email containing a code. This code must be entered in the browser to complete the login.

Please note that these emails are sent from an ieee.org address, and in some cases, may be mistakenly flagged as spam by corporate firewalls. To ensure smooth access to the system, we kindly ask all IAS members to whitelist IEEE email addresses or remove them from their blocked senders list.

Call for Papers: IEEE Journal of Emerging and Selected Topics in Power and Electronics

Special Issue on Integrated Machine Drives

Integrated machine drives (IMDs), which combine the machine, power converter, and control system into a single unit, offer significant advantages in terms of efficiency, compactness, and ease of use. By eliminating the need for external control
equipment, IMDs provide highly efficient and seamless solutions for a variety of industrial and commercial applications. Their integrated design reduces the mass and volume required for the converter and controller housing and removes the need for lengthy machine-converter connections, resulting in cost savings of 20% to 40%.

Deadline for Submission of Manuscript: 30 September 2025

All submissions should be made through Manuscript Central

Submit Your Manuscript Here

The cover page should be clearly marked with “Special Issue on Integrated Machine Drives” and the appropriate manuscript type should be selected when uploading the submission. Manuscripts submitted for this special issue will be handled by the guest editorial board.

Call for Papers: IEEE Journal of Emerging and Selected Topics in Power Electronics Special Issue on Power Electronics for Distributed Generation Systems

Special Issue on Power Electronics for Distributed Generation Systems

Power electronics technology is essential for distributed generation systems and the transition to a decarbonized electric energy
infrastructure. However, the integration of renewable energy, storage systems, and new loads like electric vehicles and AI data centers
brings challenges in power conversion, grid stability, and energy management. These challenges require power electronic technology
to be more efficient, reliable, intelligent, and cost-effective. Furthermore, the shift to distributed generation calls for innovative power
electronic solutions to interface renewable energy, support bidirectional power flow, and maintain stability. Thus, this special issue
seeks research on advanced power electronics that enable efficient, reliable, and sustainable distributed generation, aiming to
accelerate next-generation electric energy systems.
