The 13th Annual IEEE Energy Conversion Congress and Exposition (ECCE 2021) will be held in Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada, from October 10 to October 14, 2021. ECCE is a pivotal international event on energy conversion. A diverse portfolio of tutorials are solicited: 1) Basic knowledge in a particular subfield of power electronics or energy conversion, from components to systems; 2) Emerging technology in either fundamental breakthroughs or new applications; 3) Industry skillsets or tools with knowledge beyond textbooks or academic papers. All tutorials are held on Sunday, October 10, 2021, either morning or afternoon. Each tutorial is 3 hours long, excluding break times. Each accepted tutorial will receive one conference registration together with an honorarium of $1,000.
Note that publication of a technical paper will still require a paid full registration. All tutorial proposals should be submitted via the ECCE 2021 web portal under “Call for Tutorials”. Please follow the Tutorial Proposal Form on the website as a submission template. The proposals will be reviewed by a panel of subject matter experts.
One or more of the following elements are strongly encouraged in the tutorial proposals:
A) Industry led or co-hosted lectures;
B) Interactive instructor-audience approaches, including hands-on;
C) ECCE 2021 regionally oriented topics;
D) Collaborative cross-disciplinary topics or teams;
E) Other creative topics or formats that engage the audience.
Factors considered as less attractive to the audience are:
a) Narrowly focused topics;
b) Theory heavy lectures;
c) Similar tutorial topics or teams from the immediate past ECCE or other major PELS conferences;
d) Solicitation of a particular product or service.
