Every autumn, the NAPS is hosted by a selected university. For almost half century, the NAPS becomes a prestigious conference/exhibition that draws hundreds of international attendees, including academic professors, national laboratory researchers, industrial developers & practitioners, and excellent graduate students in power engineering. NAPS welcomes papers on analytical, computational, experimental studies aimed at solving problems related to operation, control, monitoring, protection, reliability as well as economics of power and energy systems and components. NAPS will continue the long held tradition of encouraging presentation of papers by students and recognizing their best efforts by awards at the end of the symposium.
