Conference Support for 2015 North American Power Symposium; Charlotte, NC; October 4-6, 2015.

该奖项用于资助参加第47届年度北美电力研讨会（NAPS） （NAPS 2015）的美国学生的相关费用（如差旅费、注册费和住宿费）。研讨会将于2015年10月4日至10月6日由北卡罗来纳大学夏洛特分校主办。nap是一个由IEEE提供技术赞助的非营利性活动，主要目的是为学生提供一个论坛，让他们展示并获得关于他们在电力工程方面的研究的反馈。传统上，nap的绝大多数论文都是由学生提交的。过去，国家科学基金会一直支持nap。过去，NSF的支持有助于学生的参与。除了为学生提供补贴住宿外，研讨会还将通过全面的学生计划、参观与研讨会主题相关的附近设施以及学生论文比赛来培养和鼓励学生参与。本次研讨会的主题包括电力系统运行、电力系统性能、电力系统保护、电力系统控制、电力电子、智能电网、微电网运行与优化等。将采取措施鼓励妇女和代表性不足的少数群体参与2015年国家行动计划。

This award is to subsidize student-related expenses (e.g., travel, registration, and accommodation) incurred by US students attending the 47th annual North American Power Symposium (NAPS), NAPS 2015. The Symposium will be hosted by the University of North Carolina at Charlotte, from October 4 to October 6, 2015. NAPS is a nonprofit event with technical sponsorship from IEEE and is aimed primarily at providing a forum for students to present and obtain feedback on their research in power engineering. Traditionally, the overwhelming majority of papers in NAPS are presented by students. NAPS has been supported by the National Science Foundation in the past. Support from NSF has helped to enable student participation in the past. In addition to providing subsidized accommodation for students, the symposium will foster and encourage student participation through a comprehensive student program, tours of nearby facilities related to symposium topics, and a student paper competition. Topics to be addressed in the Symposium include power system operation, power system performance, power system protection, power system control, power electronics, Smart Grid, and microgrid operation and optimization. Measures will be taken to encourage participation of women and underrepresented minorities in NAPS 2015.
