The Applied Power Electronics Conference (APEC) focuses on the practical and applied aspects of the power electronics business. This is not just a designer’s conference; APEC has something of interest for anyone involved in power electronics:

  • Equipment OEMs that use power supplies and dc-dc converters in their equipment
  • Designers of power supplies, dc-dc converters, motor drives, uninterruptable power supplies, inverters, and any other power electronic circuits, equipment, and systems
  • Manufacturers and suppliers of components and assemblies used in power electronics
  • Manufacturing, quality, and test engineers involved with power electronics equipment
  • Marketing, sales, and anyone involved in the business of power electronics
  • Compliance engineers testing and qualifying power electronics equipment or equipment that uses power electronics

APEC Plenary Sessions are a long-standing tradition of addressing issues of immediate and long-term interest to the practicing power electronic engineer. Presentations typically feature invited distinguished professionals.

The technical program includes peer-reviewed papers that cover all areas of technical interest for the practicing power electronics professional. The rigorous review process highlights the most innovative technical solutions and provides the highest quality possible.

Industry Sessions present information on current topics in power electronics from industry sources. In addition to the practicing power electronics professional, these sessions are of interest to system engineers/architects and business-oriented people such as purchasing agents, regulatory agencies, along with other people who support the power electronics industry.

In-depth discussion of important and complex power electronics topics are perfect for working professionals in power electronics or related fields. Seminars are 3.5-hours in length (including breaks), range in the scope of topic, and can vary from introductory to advanced in technical level.

Exhibitor Presentations highlight new products or initiatives that companies in the power electronics industry are developing, along with opportunities for attendees to interact with other companies in the industry.

RAP Sessions allow for exciting dialogue amongst attendees and presenters. Admission to all Rap Sessions is free with an Exhibits Only Registration.

The APEC Conference hosts a three-day exposition featuring hundreds of companies serving the power electronics industry in a variety of capacities. Top manufacturers and service providers are on hand to help you explore the latest in technology and solutions.

Every year, APEC hosts an evening reception that allows attendees to network and relax in an inviting location and celebrate the year’s accomplishments. The reception is included in Full Conference and Technical Session registration, or with an additional fee for all other conference registrants.
