201447th AnnualFrontiers of Power ConferenceABOUT THE CONFERENCEThe frontiers of power technologies have been expanding dramatically in recentyears. This is due to concerns over environmental impacts, entry of renewableenergy technologies, security issues, power quality needs to satisfy the evolvingdigital society and the opportunities that have opened up to embed sensors,computers and two-way communications that utilize the internet to evolve a smartgrid. The variety of papers and the Keynote Speakers scheduled in this 47th annualconference reflect these changing times and provide an opportunity for free andopen discussion of important issues with serious economic implications.KEYNOTE SPEAKERMladen Kezunovic, Ph.D., P.E., Fellow, IEEE, Fellow, CIGREEugene E.

Over the years,the scope of this conference has expanded to include several critical problem areasof energy and power technologies. These problems are not only technical butpolitical and economic as well.Engineers, engineering managers, and supervisors associated with planning,designing, or operating power generating stations and transmission anddistribution systems and renewable energy projects will find this program ofspecial relevance to their work.Participation is invited from all those associated with electric utilities, electricpower production facilities, power equipment manufacturers, consultants formunicipal and rural electric utilities, universities, and government agencies.This Forty-seventh Annual Conference is a continuation of a program firststarted in the early 1960’s at Oklahoma State University, Stillwater.11
