FREQUENCY REGULATION SUPPORT BY LOADS AND RENEWABLE ENERGY SOURCES
Organised by Dr Francesco Conte, University of Genova (IT)
Email: fr.conte@unige.it
During last years, a wide installation of renewable energy sources (RESs) into the power system has been promoted. In this scenario, the control of the grid frequency is becoming highly complex. Indeed, RESs are distributed, extremely variable, not programmable, and they do not contribute to the frequency regulation.

THE NEXT GENERATION GRID: APPARENT INTERSECTION OF ELECTRICAL AND COMMUNICATION SYSTEM
Organised by Dr. Subrahmanyam Pulipaka and Dr. Rajneesh Kumar, Birla Institute of Technology and Science, Pilani, India
Email: pulipakasubbu@gmail.com, rajneesh1872@gmail.com
With the growing demand of off-grid systems for solving energy access issue across the globe, the grid architecture is slowly evolving. The future grid will be a conglomeration of forward compatible hardware and software technologies to address evolving energy access patterns. Additionally, the next generation grids, with the proliferation of digital infrastructure to improve financial and operational self-reliance, are slowly transitioning into the ones where the intertwining of communication and electrical infrastructure is a requirement

ADVANCED TECHNIQUES FOR CONDITION MONITORING OF ENERGYCONVERTERS AND SYSTEMS IN RENEWABLE APPLICATIONS
Organised by Dr. Claudio Bruzzese & Dr. Mohamed Djemai
Email: claudio.bruzzese@uniroma1.it; mohamed.djemai@univ-valenciennes.fr
Renewable energy sources rely on many kinds of energy converters, which make possible the exploitation of primary sources (wind, tidal, solar, geothermal, hydro, etc.) for electric energy production. Energy converters (Electromechanical: synchronous/asynchronous generators, single or double-fed machines, permanent magnet or current-excited machines, reluctance machines, rotary or linear type machines, etc.

DESIGN, CONTROL AND APPLICATIONS OF EFFICIENT ENERGY TECHNOLOGIES OR SYSTEMS
Organised by Dr. Leposava Ristic & Dr. Mirjana Stamenic
Email: leposava.ristic@etf.bg.ac.rs; mstamenic@mas.bg.ac.rs
Energy consumption is constantly and globally increasing in order to keep improving the quality of life. Energy, as one of the most important resources, since 1970's has become key strategic issue. Thus, improving the energy efficiency is one of the central themes of the energy policy of all developed countries in the world.
