EPE Association: Committees
The European Power Electronics and Drives Association is managed by several committees:
- The General Assembly is possessed of all powers necessary for the achievement of the goals of the Association.
- The Executive Council is the executive body invested by the General Assembly with all the powers of administration and management of the Association. It delegates the daily management to the Board and the Secretariat. It is empowered to take all decisions in the context of policies and major objectives defined by the General Assembly.
- The Board is entrusted to take all decisions of an executive nature which may be necessary between two meetings of the Council and draws up recommendations in respect of other matters that require a decision of the Executive Council.
- The International Scientific Committee (ISC) is responsible to the Coordination Committee for the management of the scientific programmes to be presented at the events.
- The Secretariat is taking care of the daily work.
