Ahead of APEC 2026, technical session proposal summaries are being accepted for consideration
APEC 2026 Technical Sessions: Key Details and Submission Information
The Applied Power Electronics Conference (APEC 2026) is set to take place in San Antonio, Texas, from March 22-26, 2026. This renowned event, focusing on power electronics, decarbonization, digitalization, and innovative semiconductor technologies, is eagerly anticipated by professionals in the field.
For those interested in submitting papers for the Technical Sessions, some information is available. Reviewers will prioritise the usefulness of the work to practicing power electronics professionals and value completed experimental work. The submission windows for APEC 2026 Technical Sessions have been significantly expanded, but exact deadlines have not been explicitly stated as of yet.
Authors are advised to prepare their submissions carefully, ensuring that the digest describes the problem addressed by the proposed paper, its major results, and how it differs from existing literature. Abstracts for the Technical Sessions are due on August 15, 2025.
Detailed submission guidelines, including specific topic requirements, paper format, and exact deadlines, are not currently available. However, it is common for APEC conferences to publish a Call for Papers (CFP) with detailed instructions on their official website. To stay informed, it is recommended to monitor the official APEC 2026 conference site or contact the organizing committee directly.
Meanwhile, Phoenix Contact, a leading provider of electrical engineering solutions, offers several products that could be of interest to attendees. Their CONNEXIS range provides reliable wire-to-board connections, while their GameChangers focus on Single Pair Ethernet Connectors for the future of Industrial IoT. Furthermore, Phoenix Contact PRC Connectors offer robust power distribution, and they also provide GameChangers for interconnects in harsh environments.
The conference features fourteen tracks, including AC-DC Converters, DC-DC Converters, DC-AC Inverters, Devices and Components, Magnetics, Control Modeling and Simulation, Motor Drives, Power Electronics for Utility Applications, Renewable Energy Systems, Wireless Power Transfer, and Transportation Power Electronics.
Authors will be notified of the decision of paper acceptance on October 14, 2025. Instructions for submissions for APEC 2026 Technical Sessions are available at apec-conf.org/speakers/ts-author-info/. Keep an eye on this site for the formal Call for Papers when it is released.
