The IEEE INTELEC2011 Conference in Amsterdam is approaching fast (Sunday 9 October until Thursday 13 October 2011). Five tutorials are available on Sunday 9 October 2011. Join our top experts and take in these high quality classes on the three tutorial pillars: Generation, Storage and Distribution. The Organizing Committee has decided to introduce a few places to MSc and PhD students to take part in these tutorials for free. We are certain that these presented topics are of great interest for their further education.

About the Tutorials
The tutorials are divided up in the following three pillars:

Storage
Fuel Cells (tutorial 5).
Various types of fuel cells and their applications are discussed, along with their fuels, operating systems, safety and environment issues.
Batteries (tutorial 3).
Due to the unpredictable nature of fluctuating energy sources, local electricity storage as rechargeable batteries will indispensably play a key role.
Following, the improvement and refining of the battery management systems (BMS) performance using adaptive mathematical models.
Advanced Battery Technologies for Telecom Applications (tutorial 2).
Various battery technologies will be discussed, as well as battery maintenance and monitoring.

Generation
Energy That Surrounds Us: Energy Harvesting (tutorial 1 part one).
An overview of a self-powered system will be introduced together with the different existing possibilities of operating the electronic load to achieve energy neutral operation.

Distribution
Future Energy Grids (tutorial 4).
This tutorial provides the context of new communication needs in power systems, their requirements, in light of monitoring and control functions, and the consequences on the implementation methods (Smart Grids).
Energy That Surrounds Us: Wireless Transfer of Energy (tutorial 1 part two).
The methods to obtain the necessary electric energy at the consumer site without wiring, were and still are an attractive goal for the researchers.
The nature of the energy transmission process will be discussed in close connection to the applications that it permits.


Registration
The number of available places for students is limited, so be fast.
For each tutorial no registration fee is required.
Travelling expenses are not reimbursed.
For participation, please do register timely.
To register to one or more tutorials the student has to send an e-mail to our conference office MCI in Amsterdam: intelec2011-reg@mci-group.com.
In this e-mail the student mentions:
    University/School,
    Title tutorial(s) of his/her choice,
    E-mail address.
He/she will receive a confirmation e-mail that allows him/her to participate in a tutorial of his/her choice.
