2022 IEEE 13TH INTERNATIONAL SYMPOSIUM

Power Electronics for Distributed Generation Systems

The ambitious challenge of having 100 % green energy production can be tackled only through efficient, reliable and smart power electronics ! Come to Kiel in 2022 or participate virtually to discuss the latest advancements in power electronics for distributed generation. The 2022 IEEE 13th International Symposium on Power Electronics for Distributed Generation Systems (PEDG 2022) will be held during June 26th - 29th, 2022 in Kiel, Germany, as hybrid event allowing also on-line participation.

We would like to thank all participants for the great PEDG 2022. It was an honor to welcome you as guests in Kiel on site after a long Covid break. Feel free to email us what you liked and what we can do better - we appreciate constructive feedback.

You can find pictures of the PEDG in our gallery!

Selected papers of PEDG 2022 will be invited for possible publication in IEEE Open Journal for Power Electronics at discounted rated, in special compendium celebrating PEDG 2022. The Selection will be based on PEDG 2022 review scores and on feedback from participants to the presentation at the conference. Authors will receive a feedback following the PEDG 2022 conference.

ABOUT

Welcome to PEDG 2022, Kiel, Germany

This international symposium, technically sponsored by IEEE Power Electronics Society and organized by the PELS Technical Committee on Sustainable Energy Systems, will provide a venue for experts to present the results of their cutting-edge research in power electronics and distributed generation systems. PEDG 2022 will feature plenary speeches, tutorials, and regular technical sessions on theory, analysis, design and development, testing, deployment and impact of power electronics for distributed generation, energy storage, and sustainable sources.

Local organization of PEDG 2022 is provided by Kiel University (Chair of Power Electronics headed by Prof. Marco Liserre) and the technical/financial sponsorship is provided by the IEEE Power Electronis Society.

THE LOCATION

Kiel, Germany

Kiel is the only state capital in Germany located directly on the coast in the far north of the country in Schleswig-Holstein and connects the Baltic Sea with the North Sea via the famous Kiel Canal. With 250,000 inhabitants, it is the northernmost major city in Germany. The university city is famous for the handball record champion THW-Kiel, the largest German shipyard ThyssenKrupp Marine Systems, the ferry connections to Scandinavia and the culinary specialty of “Kieler Sprotten”.

The annual highlight in the Sailing City Kiel is the largest sailing event in the world, the Kieler Woche, which is also an international folk festival ending back to back on the day when the PEDG begins.
