The Joint IEEE Chapter of Industry Applications Society (IAS), Industrial Electronics Society (IES), and Power Electronics Society (PELS) proudly proposes to organise an event titled:
“Future-Ready Solar: Industry Outlook and Inverted Technology Innovations”
Venue: A- 101, Nirma University, Ahmedabad
Date: 20 September 2025
Event Flow:
1. Industry Expert Lecture (2 Hours): Mr. Kayan Kalthia, Business Development Executive, Kasol Energy
2. Academic Expert Lecture (2 Hours): Dr. Tanmoy Bhattacharya, Associate Professor, IIT Kharagpur
Event Concept and Relevance:
This event brings together the power of industry and academics under one roof, combining practical insights from industrial leaders with the cutting-edge research perspectives of eminent academicians. This unique synergy offers participants a 360-degree understanding of the role of power electronics in photovoltaic (PV)-based renewable systems, which form the backbone of future-ready solar technologies.
Power electronics has emerged as the heart of modern solar energy systems, enabling efficient conversion, control, and integration of renewable power into smart grids. As India marches toward the vision of Atmanirbhar Bharat, advancing technologies in PV systems and power electronics will be crucial in driving sustainability, energy independence, and green growth.
Key Themes:
• Role of Power Electronics in PV-based Renewable Systems: From maximum power point tracking (MPPT) to smart inverters and grid integration, power electronics is the enabling technology for reliable and efficient solar deployment.
• Sustainability and Clean Energy Development: The event will highlight how clean energy innovations are shaping the next generation of power solutions, aligning with India’s mission to build a sustainable future through self-reliance and innovation.
• Bridging Industry and Academics: With the participation of an industrial expert and an academic expert, the event ensures a perfect blend of practical applications and theoretical advancements, giving participants insights into both current practices and future research directions.
“When Industry Meets Academics: Powering the Future of Solar through Innovation, Sustainability, and Atmanirbhar Bharat.”
Objective:
This event aims to inspire students, researchers, and professionals to adopt innovative approaches in renewable energy, foster IEEE community growth through the PELS membership drive, and prepare the new generation of engineers to lead the clean energy revolution with advanced power electronics solutions.
