•Alternate energy systems and associatedpower electronics will be essential
•Needs expertise in communication, signal processing, controls, computing in addition to power systems
Engineering Needed to Accomplish This Task

Core Functions of IEEE PES
Develop standards (eg, IEEE 1547).
Provide education to develop the workforce for the
future.
Provide a mechanism to publish new developments.
Education and research aspects for alternative
energy power conditioning can be easily adopted
and in some cases, are already under consideration.
