Student Paper Award

Basil Papadias Award

In the honour of the PowerTech Conference founder, the ‘Basil Papadias student paper award’ will be presented to the author of the best student paper. An ‘ad-hoc’ committee will be formed to review student papers.

The conditions to participate in the contest are that the paper is authored or co-authored by a graduate or undergraduate student, who has had a major contribution in the preparation, and who will present the paper at the conference either orally or at a poster session. The ad-hoc committee will receive the list of student papers at the stage of the extended summary acceptance and will coordinate with the IAC for their initial review for screening purposes.

Winner of this year's Contest

The Basil Papadias Award for the best student paper went to Adam Collin of the University of Edinburgh for his paper "An 11kV Steady, State Residential Aggregate Load Model".
