Welcome to IEEE Power & Energy Society Community
The IEEE Power & Energy Society (PES) General Meeting (GM) extends a warm welcome to our first-time attendees! The IEEE PES GM is the premier annual power and electrical engineering event that will bring together over 3,000 leading PES members, power and electrical engineers, key academics, and engineering students from all over the world. From 1964 through 2002 IEEE PES had a Winter and Summer meeting each year. Starting in 2003 these were combined into a single General Meeting which has been held annually. Our goal is for you to have a phenomenal conference experience. Join us this summer in Orlando to participate with the PES community.First-time Attendees Session
Attending the GM for the first time can be an overwhelming experience due to the size and scope of the event.
There’s a great session at the beginning of the GM designed to help you learn about the GM, all the key events, and how to optimize your time. If you choose to attend in Orlando, join this helpful session, meet other first-time attendees, and get familiar with our events and activities. This event is open to all registered attendees.
