A select group of experts from Asia, Europe and North America met in Dresden, Germany, September 29 and 30 at the invitation of the International Electrotechnical Committee (IEC) Strategic Group 4 (SG 4) to discuss the use of low-voltage dc (LVDC) in distribution systems to minimize conversion losses in installations, buildings and electronic equipment.
According to the invitation: "There is a need for a systematic global approach on LVDC distribution in order to formulate a harmonized strategy. The goal of this LVDC workshop is an information exchange between experts to examine: sources and generation distribution and applications energy storage, technical requirements and constraints, such as electromagnetic compatibility, electrical safety, energy efficiency, reliability, and so on."
