| |||||||||
NTELEC ® 2012, which was held between September 30 and October 4, 2012 at the Talking Stick Resort and Conference Center in Sunny Scottsdale, Arizona, was a great success by all measures. The conference theme was “Star gazing in the desert: What keeps power people up at night?”
INTELEC©, the International Telecommunications Energy Conference, is the annual world-class technical forum which presents the latest developments in communications energy systems and related power-processing devices and circuits. There were 531 attendees to this year’s conference and exhibition and 42 guest attendees that enjoyed the partner program. There were 59 attendees to the 4 tutorials sessions presented. Fifty four companies provided interesting displays of their latest products at the technical exhibition.
The INTELEC 2012 conference program featured a key note speech by General Russel Honoré, leader of Task Force Katrina, which highlighted his experiences and the importance of reliable backed-up communications infrastructure in a disaster recovery situation. There were also several invited plenary papers by Mr. Tao Hongming of Huawei, by the DOE on Fuel Cells and by Mark Mills on The Future of Energy Storage and on HVDC for data centers by Scott Barbour of Emerson. The technical program also included many interesting papers, workshops and poster sessions. Manuscripts of presented papers were included in the conference proceedings. The technical exhibition consisted of displays of products and services in the areas of; advanced energy storage systems, AC and DC equipment and systems for central office and outside plant, green power solutions, energy efficiency, powering through disasters and many components that are critical to operational success. The tutorial program included sessions on zone de-powering, distributed generation, batteries, failure analysis, renewable energy and communications power systems. An extensive social program included two evening exhibit receptions, afternoon tours such as river rafting and desert 4-wheeling, a banquet with stargazing helped by astronomers with telescopes, and a comprehensive partner program. INTELEC will be held in Hamburg, Germany in the fall of 2013 and in Vancouver, Canada in 2014.
