The "Power Electronics Tri-Conference" on "Solid-State Transformation of Power Grids" was held at NCKU on November 22-23.
The "Power Electronics Tri-Conference" was held at NCKU from November 22-23, marking the first time it was hosted at the university since the collaboration between the Taiwan Power Electronics Association, Taiwan Power and Energy Engineering Association, and the National Science Council's Electrical Engineering Division began. The conference, which focused on the theme "Solid-State Transformation of Power Grids," brought together over 600 participants and featured 338 paper presentations, along with 16 companies showcasing products and job openings.
Opening remarks were made by NCKU Vice President Jun-Zhang Li, who highlighted the significance of the conference in addressing key energy transition issues. Former Presidential Advisor Rong-Jin Shen also attended the opening, reflecting on the historical ties of NCKU to both the Taiwan Power Engineering and Power Electronics conferences.
The event included keynote speeches by distinguished experts and several forums on energy efficiency, solid-state grid transformation, and emerging trends in power and energy technologies. Notably, the Taiwan Power and Energy Engineering Association awarded the "Industry Model Award" to Rong-Jin Shen and the "Power Industry Contribution Award" to Taiwan Power's Wu Jin-Zhong for their contributions to green energy development.
The conference emphasized strengthening grid resilience and integrating AI into power dispatch to balance renewable energy supply and demand. It also explored how new technologies like hydrogen energy and electric vehicle charging management can support Taiwan's energy transition and green development goals.
