“PEMD provides an international forum for hundreds of power electronics, machines and drives specialists to share experiences, new ideas, and developments in design, operation, analysis, and practical application and optimisation of electric machines, drive systems and components.

PEMD 2016 saw a record number of both high quality papers presented and conference attendees, and our aim is to supercede this in 2018.

“This is a fantastic opportunity to present your work to the world experts in motor drive systems from both industry and academia.

“I look forward to receiving your submissions and greeting you in 2018 to the City of Liverpool – a city of culture, heritage and people.”
