Preamble
Power Electronics plays a vital role in
realizing renewable energy sources such as
solar and wind. With the advent of
development and availability of high power
solid state devices, the use of present day
Power Electronic devices facilitate
generation of higher power both in stand-
alone and grid connected systems.
The objective of the One-day symposium is
to bring all professionals, field experts,
academicians, researchers and students in
Sultanate of Oman under one roof to
interact and exchange ideas, experiences
and expertise in the specific area of
applications of Power Electronics in
renewable energy and grid connected
systems with emphasis in Oman.
This symposium includes a key note speech
and several invited talks and presentations
covering Renewable Energy-its future,
trends, strengths, impact and research in
Oman, state-of-the-art converters,
distributed generation, grid connected
systems, desalination systems, etc.
The symposium is solely sponsored by
Oman Electricity Transmission Company
(OETC).
