Due to the COVID-19 Outbreak, the PSCC'2020 conference will be ENTIRELY VIRTUAL.

The health and safety of the PSCC 2020 attendees is our utmost priority. PSCC 2020 will therefore be moving to a virtual platform held remotely during the same dates as the original conference schedule (June 29 – July 3, 2020). As there will not be a physical conference taking place in Porto this year, all conference participants will attend remotely, presenting their papers and joining in discussion with attendees wherever they are based around the world.

All accepted and presented papers will be published in both the conference proceedings and in the journal Electric Power Systems Research (EPSR). Each paper must be presented by one of its Authors during the virtual conference in order to be included in the proceedings and the special issue of EPSR.

Despite the ongoing global health crisis, we believe we can still have an interesting and fruitful exchange of learning and insights on new approaches and techniques for modelling, analyzing, and controlling power systems. The world still faces a critical need to decarbonise the use of energy and a goal of bringing the benefits of electrification to many more people. The system challenges associated with this are considerable and depend on the kinds of innovative methods for which PSCC has become a leading forum.

We will provide more information regarding the virtual platform and the registration fee and process as soon as possible. We look forward to meeting you virtually this summer and engaging you at PSCC 2020!

Best regards,

João Peças Lopes

Chair of the Local Organising Committee
