Submitting your paper

Below is all the information authors will require to complete the full paper submission.

We invite you to submit your research and technical papers which will be peer reviewed and published. You’ll also have the opportunity to present your papers at the conference in the form of oral presentations, poster pitches or 1–2-hour long workshops

We aim for a 16-week turnaround time from conference end date to publication, providing all authors submit the requested documentation by the deadlines provided.

Successful authors will have their paper(s) submitted for indexing on IET Inspec, IEEE Xplore and Ei Compendex, increasing citations and influence that extends beyond the conference.

They will also be invited to submit extended conference papers to the IET journals including IET Power Electronics and IET Electric Power Applications.
