Smart and Sustainable Electricity Systems
April 23, 2008
Theme 1: Distributed and Renewable Generation and the Impact on the Electricity System
Papers are solicited on 1) developments and prospects for individual distributed and/or renewable generation (solar, wind, domestic CHP) and 2) the resulting challenges for the future electricity system (infrastructure and markets)
April 23, 2008
Theme 2: Distributed Control and Demand Side Integration
Papers are solicited on experiences and/or studies with 1) novel approaches and ICT-technology for distributed control in smart electricity systems, 2) demand side integration programs and technology.
April 24, 2008
Theme 3: Intelligent energy storage
Papers are solicited on experiences and/or studies on new ways to integrate existing or near-future energy storage technologies into the smart electricity grid (e.g. vehicle to grid plug in hybrid vehicles, the use of thermal storage as an indirect energy buffer, an overview of the technology trends in energy storage, etc.)
April 24, 2008
Theme 4: Power electronics for a smart distributed electricity system
Papers are solicited on research results on intelligent power electronics, within the distribution grid or connected to the distributed energy resources themselves, and their potential contribution to grid stabilization
April 25, 2008
Theme 5: The market environment and regulatory challenges
Papers are solicited that frame the technical developments in the context of the European, national and/or local market environment of the electricity market and the challenges that are faced to make a real smart electricity system possible

Papers
Papers accepted for i-SUP2008 will also be invited to be submitted for the "International Journal of Distributed Energy Resources". The "International Journal of Distributed Energy Resources" is a scholarly peer-reviewed archival Journal. It publishes experimental, theoretical and applied results in both science and engineering for distributed energy resources in electrical grids. A thorough peer-review of each paper is performed by at least two independent experts for the special topics addressed: Power Electronics - Grid Control - Microgrids - Transmission Systems - Power Quality - Wind Energy - Fuel Cells - Photovoltaics - Storage Technology - Combined Heat and Power (CHP) - Thermal Energy - Information Systems - Simulation - Laboratory Tests - Pilot Installations - Regulating and Market Issues - Transition of Power Systems - Renewable Energy - Distributed Generation. IJDER will publish the papers within the regular issues. For that purpose, please use as much as possible the same format as the DER journal.
