BANDUNG, itb.ac.id—ITB SEEI (School of Electrical Engineering and Informatics) organized its 5th ICPERE (International Conference on Power Engineering and Renewable Energy) in Bandung. The event was held from 22-23 November 2022.
ICPERE is a prestigious seminar that delves in the field of electric engineering as well as new and renewable energy. It is administered once every two years by ITB SEEI and IEEE. Expected to be a gathering place for academics, industries, and government, it is hoped that everyone who participated can exchange ideas on the progress and plans for the development of electricity.
During the opening, the Chairman of ICPERE Dr. Ir. Agus Purwandi, M.T. mentioned that participants of the event are not only from Indonesia, but also from abroad. Held in a hybrid setting, this year’s conference is themed "Towards Indonesia Net Zero Emission 2060".
