About IWED 2024
The workshop on Electric Drives is an annual event held by the Department of Electric Drives at the National Research University «Moscow Power Engineering Institute».
Over the past 30 years it has become one of the major events in the field of electric drive technology and attracts scientists and researchers from all over Russia and abroad to share their research experience.
From 2018 year onward, and in order to further expand international scientific cooperation, the workshop is conducted in the English language and supported by the broadened international scientific committee including technical support from IEEE.
In 2022 due to the pandemic situation IWED 2022 was a 100% On-line event. Solely remote technologies were used and no in-person sessions were planned.
Until 2023 the event was technically supported by IEEE Industrial Electronics Society, IEEE Industry Applications Society, IEEE Power Electronics Society. The financial co-sponsor was IEEE Russia Section IE/PE/PEL/IA Joint Chapter.
The organizing Committee of IWED has carried out a decision to suspend conducting the workshop with international participation since 2023 until the political situation improves. Instead a National workshop is conducted in Russian language solely – including the invited talks and oral presentations of papers.
