The EPE 2023 ECCE Europe conference will take place in Aalborg, Denmark, from 4 to 8 September 2023, where participants will gain detailed insights into the state of the art of power electronics and its applications, and enjoy the exchange with other enthusiasts from all over the world who are interested in this highly relevant and constantly growing area.
The 25th European Conference on Power Electronics and Applications will be organized in cooperation with Aalborg University. We are looking forward to host the community of power electronics in Denmark, the land of wind and green energy, for the second time.
On Monday, September 4th, several tutorials will be organized, and some exciting technical visits are planned for Friday, September 8th.
The 25th Conference on power Electronics and Applications (and Exhibition), EPE’23 ECCE Europe (Energy Conversion Congress and Expo Europe) is co-sponsored by the EPE Association and the IEEE Power Electronics Society (PELS).
The conference will take place at the AKKC – The Aalborg Congress and Culture Center in Aalborg, Denmark.
