At the second-annual Smart Grid Electronics Forum (SGEF ’11) you will learn how the smart grid will impact the design of all types of electronic equipment. If it plugs into the ac power mains, your equipment has the potential to be impacted by the roll-out of the Smart Grid. The Plenary Session at SGEF ’11 will feature senior executives from 3eTI, Fairchild Semiconductor, FreeWave Technologies, Marvell Technology, Qualcomm Atheros, Redpine Signals, TDI Power, and Viridity Energy. Plenary session topics will include: challenges of home area networks, using Wi-Fi embedded chipsets, optimization of smart grid communications, assimilating EV/PHEV power plants into the smart grid, increasing the functionality of photovoltaic generation with local energy storage, and more.
