The 15th Annual IEEE Energy Conversion Congress and Exposition (ECCE 2023) will be held in Nashville, Tennessee, USA, from October 29 to November 2, 2023. ECCE is a pivotal international event on energy conversion. It will bring together practicing engineers, researchers, and other professionals for interactive discussions on the latest advances in areas related to energy conversion.

The ECCE organizing committee invites proposals for tutorials to be presented at ECCE 2023. Tutorials can be either 1.5 hours or 3 hours long.  Each accepted tutorial will receive one conference registration, and 1.5 hour tutorials will receive an honorarium of $500 and 3 hour tutorials will receive an honorarium of $1,000.

Please note that publication of a technical paper will still require a paid full registration. All tutorial proposals should be submitted via the ECCE 2023 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:

  1. Industry led or co-hosted lectures
  2. Interactive instructor-audience approaches, including hands-on demonstrations
    and practices
  3. Application focused session on tools or methods for the practicing engineer
  4. ECCE 2023 regionally oriented topics at the host city, e.g. smart mobility
  5. Collaborative cross-disciplinary topics and tutorial teams are welcome
  6. Topics that engage the audience in formats that serves to communicate with
    the attendees

Tutorials considered to be less attractive to the audience are:

  1. Topics that are too narrowly focused
  2. Lectures that are not balanced between theory and application
  3. Tutorial topics or teams presented previously in immediate past ECCE or other
    major IAS/PELS conferences
  4. Tutorials that narrowly focus on presenter’s own research works that are already publicly available
  5. Solicitation of a particular product or service

Potential topic areas include but are not limited to:
