The Energy Equation: Clean, Safe, Reliable and Digital Future
The 2026 IERE-KEPCO International Workshop, under the theme “The Energy Equation: Clean, Safe, Reliable and Digital Future”, aims to explore the balanced solutions that will define the next generation of the global power industry. As the world accelerates its transition toward carbon neutrality, achieving harmony among energy security, environmental sustainability, and the technological innovation has become the central equation to solve.
The workshop will bring together experts from utilities, academia, and industry to discuss emerging strategies and technologies shaping this transformation. Sessions will focus on the Future Power Grid, highlighting digitalization and smart-grid innovation; Stable Power Supply and Efficiency Management, emphasizing reliability and system optimization; Towards Carbon Neutrality, addressing clean fuels, renewable integration, and low carbon technologies; and Safety, Disaster and Environmental Response, exploring risk management and system resilience in an evolving climate era.
Through global collaboration and open dialogue, the workshop seeks to redefine how the energy equation can be balanced-ensuring that the future of power remains clean, safe, reliable, and digitally empowered.
The workshop is intended for experts actively involved in the selected themes, from IERE members and non-members, as well as all those interested in the evolution of the electrical power industry and the technology development and business development opportunities associated to this evolution. IERE and KEPCO will invite prominent speakers for keynote speeches.
