IEEE extends deadline for paper submissions

IEEE GreenTech Conference invites original papers on renewable energy, energy storage, water conservation, sustainable design, and environmental impacts, with accepted works presented in Texas and published in IEEE Xplore conference proceedings.

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 Renewable Energy Expo insights and energy-reduction technologies.

Contributed papers and abstracts are solicited in four tracks:

• Energy generation and storage technologies;

• Energy resource utilization and green power programs 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, with renewable-energy jobs perspectives informing industry sessions.

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, especially around green investing trends that shape deployment.

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 as energy bill action advances in policy circles. 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.
