IEEE extends deadline for paper submissions
WASHINGTON, D.C. - Organizers of the second IEEE Green Technology Conference have extended the deadline for receiving abstracts and technical papers to December 7.
Original work is sought on current and emerging renewable energy sources and energy-reduction technologies.
Contributed papers and abstracts are solicited in four tracks:
• Energy generation and storage technologies;
• Energy resource utilization and water conservation;
• Green architecture and sustainable design;
• Environmental, legal, social, economic and political impacts.
Accepted papers will be presented during the conference, April 15-16 at the Gaylord Texan Hotel and Convention Center in Grapevine, Texas, between Dallas and Fort Worth. They will be published in a conference proceedings CD and available through the digital library IEEE Xplore.
To submit a paper, which must be received by December 7, go to http://www.ieeegreentech.org/TechConf/PaperSubmission.htm. Submissions must describe original work not previously published or currently under review for publication in another conference or journal.
Instructions can be found at (http://www.ieee.org/portal/cms_docs/pubs/confpubcenter/pdfs/samplems.pdf). Authors will be notified by December 15 whether their papers are accepted. Proposals for workshops, panels and tutorials are also welcome.
Questions regarding proposals and paper submissions can be directed to Edward L. Safford, technical program chair, at e.safford@ieee.org
With increasing concerns about fossil fuel costs, supplies and emissions, scientists, engineers and entrepreneurs are more closely examining the commercial viability of renewable energy sources. These include solar, wind, nuclear, geothermal, hydro and biomass, among others, as well as alternative vehicle power sources such as fuel cells, gasoline and liquid natural gas electric hybrids and plug-in hybrid electric vehicles. The conference aims to look at these technologies.

Powering Towards Net Zero: The UK Grid's Transformation Challenge
LONDON - Prime Minister Sunak's recent upgrade to his home's electricity grid, designed to power his heated swimming pool, serves as a microcosm of a much larger challenge facing the UK: transforming the nation's entire electricity network for net zero emissions.
This transition requires a monumental £170bn-£210bn investment by 2050, earmarked for reinforcing and expanding onshore cables and pylons that deliver electricity from power stations to homes and businesses. This overhaul is crucial to accommodate the planned switch from fossil fuels to clean energy sources - wind and solar farms - powering homes with electric cars and heat pumps.
