In this episode, we delve into the dynamic world of Power Electronics, Machines, and Drives (PEMD), exploring its pivotal role in shaping the future of energy systems and sustainability efforts. 

PEMD technology plays a critical role in advancing electrification and decarbonisation efforts worldwide. With PEMD technology enabling the integration of renewable energy sources, improving energy conversion efficiency, and driving advancements in electric mobility, the industry is poised to play a pivotal role in shaping a more sustainable energy future. 

But creating an industry from diverse sectors that include academics, government organisations and the commercial side of the industry, requires commitment and vision. Conferences like PEMD 2024 are crucial platforms for fostering collaboration, sharing knowledge, and driving innovation within the PEMD community. The conference, organised by the IET, will shed light on the diverse range of topics, from integrated motor drives to advanced control techniques for high-frequency power electronics, highlighting the interdisciplinary nature of PEMD research.
