2013 46th Annual Frontiers of Power Conference ABOUT THE CONFERENCE The frontiers of power technologies have been expanding dramatically in recent years. This is due to concerns over environmental impacts, entry of renewable energy technologies, security issues, power quality needs to satisfy the evolving digital society and the opportunities that have opened up to embed sensors, computers and two-way communications that utilize the internet to evolve a smart grid. The variety of papers and the Keynote Speakers scheduled in this 46 th annual conference reflect these changing times and provide an opportunity for free and open discussion of important issues with serious economic implications. KEYNOTE SPEAKER Noel Schulz, Ph.D., Fellow, IEEE President, IEEE Power & Energy Society Associate Dean for Research & Graduate Programs Paslay Professor of Electrical & Computer Engineering Kansas State University Manhattan, Kansas KEYNOTE SPEAKER John D. McDonald, PE, Fellow, IEEE Past-Chair, IEEE Power & Energy Society Director, Technical Strategy & Policy Development GE Energy Management Atlanta, Georgia The Frontiers of Power Conference seeks to provide for the frank and open discussion of current problems facing the electric utility industry. Over the years, the scope of this conference has expanded to include several critical problem areas of energy and power technologies. These problems are not only technical but political and economic as well. Engineers, engineering managers, and supervisors associated with planning, designing, or operating power generating stations and transmission and distribution systems and renewable energy projects will find this program of special relevance to their work. Participation is invited from all those associated with electric utilities, electric power production facilities, power equipment manufacturers, consultants for municipal and rural electric utilities, universities, and government agencies. This Forty-sixth Annual Conference is a continuation of a program first started in the early 1960 s at, Stillwater. 2 11
