The Power Electronics Society is one of the technical societies of the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE). The IEEE Power Electronics Society (PELS) helps in the development and effective application of power electronics technology.  PELS chapters throughout the world help members stay with the latest developments. We are a non-profit organization of volunteers dedicated to scientific and educational aspects of this important engineering discipline. Activities within PELS include conferences and workshops to provide a forum for the latest advances in power electronics research. PELS also publishes the Transactions on Power Electronics and the PELS Newsletter for its members.
