CHAIR ELECTRIC POWER NETWORKS

AND RENEWABLE ENERGY

The IEEE Power and Energy Student Summit (PESS) 2024 conference took place from October 21-23 in Dresden’s historical city center. The event, which was held in the cosy setting of the Bärenzwinger student club, offered students in the field of power and electrical engineering an ideal platform for in-depth discussions and networking. Representing the LENA chair were Dr. Leonardo Nogueira Fontoura da Silva, visiting researcher, along with students Renata Rodrigues Lautert and João Pedro Scherer Cipriani.

IEEE PES Innovative Smart Grid Technologies (ISGT) Europe 2024 is a flagship conference that took place in Dubrovnik, Croatia from 14 to 17 October and focused on the latest developments, trends and innovations in the field of smart grids. It provides a central platform for shaping the future of the modern power grid, particularly through the integration of renewable energy and decentralised energy sources.

The NEIS 2024 Conference on Sustainable Energy Supply and Energy Storage Systems was held on September 16-17, 2024, at Helmut Schmidt University in Hamburg, Germany. The LENA chair was represented by Christoph Sauer and João Pedro Cipriani.

This year's UPEC conference took place from September 2^nd to 6^th, 2024 at Cardiff University in Great Britain. It was the 59^th edition of the international Universities Power Engineering Conference. The LENA chair was represented by Renata Lautert and Maja Maletz.

The IEEE PES General Meeting is one of the flagship conferences of electrical power engineering and brings together thousands of electrical engineers and scientists from all over the world every year. The conference is thus an international forum for the promotion, exchange and discussion of various topics and developments in the field of electrical power engineering. This year's General Meeting took place from 22 to 25 July in Seattle, Washington.
