RPG is a growing forum for international academics, industry and business leaders to meet, publish results and share knowledge in the renewable power generation sector. With a revised scope which directly reflects challenges and issues faced by industry, and a new chair in Mike O’Hare, General Manager of London Array, Operator of the world`s largest operational offshore wind farm, the conference is more relevant than ever to those working in and researching for the expanding renewables sector. It retains its strong link to the IET Renewable Power Generation Journal with selected papers being invited for consideration in a Special Issue of the journal, post-event.
Mar. 29, 2010 - Apr. 1, 2010 Manchester
Following the hugely successful event in 2008, the 10th International Conference on Developments in Power System Protection will provide a leading forum for the international engineering community to meet and exchange ideas. Through our tailored programme of presented papers, discussions and tutorials, attendees of this conference will gain an up-to-date understanding of recent developments and future trends in the design, application and management of power system protection and control systems.
Nov. 3-4, 2009 Birmingham
The Substation Technology 2009 Conference is a two day programme, packed with informative sessions and interactive discussions, delivering an examination of the plant equipment you are working with, the techniques employed to increase intelligence, and reviewing the cost effective design options for substations and the IEC 61850 standards.
The Hunter Memorial Lecture and Dinner will also be taking place on the evening of 3 November at Thinktank, Birmingham. The Lecture is free to attend and the speaker, Duncan Botting (Managing Director, I
Sep. 14-17, 2009 Newcastle
This event will provide engineers with an appreciation of the technical issues relating to distributed generation. This will be achieved through a combination of lectures and case studies providing real experience and technical knowledge.
The large range of topics covered provides breadth of knowledge, from the principal prime movers, to generators,
their control and protection, through to connection to the distribution network in compliance with Engineering Recommendation G.59, a copy of which will be provided to delegates.
Jun. 8-11, 2009 Prague
Join leading professionals in the Electricity Distribution Field for CIRED 2009! CIRED is Europe’s largest electricity distribution conference and includes three full days of technical presentations, as well as a trade show of the key names in the industry.
CIRED 2009 offers a unique opportunity to learn, discuss and exchange experiences about the major structural, technical, managerial and regulatory changes that are now being made and will further take place to cope with the full liberalisation of the market.
Dec. 9, 2008 Birmingham
The address will review the fundamental changes now being faced by electricity grids in Britain, across Europe, and beyond. What are the drivers creating this radical change; how will it affect end customers and the industry; how well is the UK placed, and what are the risks and opportunities ahead.
Dec. 9, 2008 Birmingham
The third annual power generation control seminar will bring together key control and instrumentation professionals to share solutions to poignant issues facing our industry. It will include case studies on migration from legacy plants and mitigating the control and instrumentation (C&I) challenges therein. It will also address how the power industry is responding to environmental concerns, specifically how control and instrumentation engineers can rethink design with sustainability in mind.

How far away is the creation of the zero-carbon home?
The Government is aiming that all new-build homes will be zero-carbon by 2016. This event will examine the engineering and design challenges involved in bringing this to market and will review the latest technologies available to engineers, architects and the construction industry to enable them to create the carbon-neutral building.
It will include a look at how zero carbon homes can be achieved by 2016, and debate the policies that will begin to deliver a zero carbon housing stock.
Nov. 19, 2008 London
Free Lecture by Lord Browne of Madingley Managing Director and Managing Partner (Europe), Riverstone Holdings LLC. This is your opportunity to hear Lord Browne speak about the central role the engineer will play in tackling climate change and creating a less carbon fuel dependent society. In this lecture, Lord Browne will set out the engineering challenge of climate change, outline promising engineering solutions and identify the skills that must be encouraged in young engineers to put them at the very centre of society.
Sep. 8-10, 2008 Newcastle
The UK Government aspires to generate 20% of UK electricity from renewable energy sources by the year 2020. In practice, much of this will be connected as “distributed generation”, primarily domestic and industrial CHP schemes, wind farms and diesel power generation, in addition to other renewables such as hydro and solar PV. This event aims to provide engineers with an appreciation of the technical issues relating to distributed generation. This will be achieved through a unique combination of lectures and case studies providing both breadth and depth.
