Conference summary

EPEC 2018 took place on October 10 and 11, 2018 at Ryerson University in Toronto, Ontario, Canada. With 82 per cent of Canadians now living in urban areas, the theme was “Clean Technologies for Smart Cities”. The conference provided an opportunity for experts from the private sector, academia, government and other interested organizations from Canada and abroad to present and discuss the latest developments in electric power and energy systems, including research and development, industrial and business trends, as well as emerging regulatory and policy challenges. This included debate on the potential impact of these developments on society. The conference provided an international forum for the exchange of ideas with thought leaders and the presentation of peer-reviewed papers on the latest power and energy R&D initiatives, applications and implementations.
