IEEE extends deadline for paper submissions
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.

Nova Scotia regulator approves 14% electricity rate hike, defying premier
HALIFAX - Nova Scotia regulators approved a 14 per cent electricity rate hike on Thursday, defying calls by Premier Tim Houston to reject the increase.
Rates will rise on average by 6.9 per cent each year in 2023 and 2024.

The board said approval was in the public interest and the increase is "reasonable and appropriate."
"The board cannot simply…
