The IEEE Power & Energy Society Awards Program recognizes the outstanding achievements and accomplishments of members and individuals from the power and energy community-at-large who advance technology in the Society's fields of interest. The program relies on the expertise and support of members, volunteers, and nominators to ensure colleagues' achievements and technological advancements are honored.
While you do not need to be an IEEE or PES Member for most of our award nominations or scholarship applications, you do need to have an IEEE Web Account. If you do not have one, you can create one here.
