July 26-30
ED&PG Committee Meeting
Thursday, July 30, 8:00am
Location to be announced
The Energy Development and Power Generation Comittee operates within the IEEE Power and Energy Society to develop standards, guides, and technical presentations related to the research and development, application, design, construction, and operation of systems and facilities for the production of electric power.
Scope Statement
The ED&PGC purpose is to technically promote:
- Treatment of matters related to the research, development, application, design, construction, and operation of systems and facilities for the conversion of energy sources (that are not specifically assigned to other technical committees), such as hydro, fossil, solar, wind, chemical, nuclear (jointly with Nuclear Power Engineering Committee, where appropriate), and others into electrical energy.
- Treatment of matters relating to assessment of energy conversion systems and facilities. This includes, but need not be limited to, matters relating to environment, conservation, regulation, economics, safety, and security.
- Sponsorship and development (either alone or jointly with other technical committees and/or organizations) of standards, recommended practices, guidelines, and policies as well as preparation of position papers and/or documents, technical conferences and/or sessions on matters related to energy conversion systems and facilities.
- Liaison and cooperation with other technical committees, societies, groups, and associations concerned with various aspects of new energy conversion technologies.

Meetings
The ED&PGC meets once a year during the Power and Energy Society's General Meeting. The meeting is open to all and membership in the Committee is not required for attendance. If you have an interest in the technical aspects of energy development of electric power generation, you are invited to attend and participate in the activities of the IEEE.
Minutes
A copy of the ED&PGC meeting minutes from the latest PES General Meeting can be downloaded here: Microsoft Word Format
Membership
Membership in the Committee, subcommittees, and the work groups it sponsors is based on membership in the IEEE and in particular in the Power and Energy Society. Individuals are expected to participate and contribute to the committee and work groups with their expertise, interest, and willingness to devote time and efforts in its proceedings. There may be instances where non-members attendance is beneficial to certain specific work group activities. For example, expertise outside the normal area of IEEE such as civil or mechanical engineering may be desirable for the work groups' effort.
