IEEE EEEIC15 International Conference on Environment and Electrical Engineering June 10-13, 2015, Rome FINAL PROGRAM 1 th 2015 IEEE 15 International Conference on Environment and Electrical Engineering June 10-13, 2015, Rome WELCOME MESSAGE FROM GENERAL CHAIRS Dear ladies and gentlemen, welcome to the 15th edition of the IEEE International Conference on Environment and Electrical Engineering that will take place in Rome, Italy, from Wednesday June 10th until Saturday June 13th, 2015. The conference, initially founded by prof. Zbigniew Leonowicz as a workshop, after several years has become a worldwide scientific guiding conference devoted to understand all the present-state matters between electrical engineering and environmental aspects. This year the conference received the technical co-sponsorship by three well-known IEEE international societies: Electromagnetic Society (EMC), Industrial Application Society (IAS) and Power and Energy Society (PES), along with the technical support of the IEEE Poland Section and the financial support of the IEEE Italy Section. Delegates from university, industry, governmental and non-governmental organizations providers will present their views on hot-topics strictly related to the environmental-electrical engineering pair. Everyone knows the far-reaching challenges that we must face in the present days: if the current trends in technological progress and innovation continue, the demand for energy will be always greater and greater than what it is now and adverse environmental effects will make feel their burden shortly. Hence we would like to make a groundbreaking conference where the participants can help through their contributions in reshaping burning issues on the table, such as renewable energy production, energy storage, smart grids management, smart buildings, energy conversion, sustainable transport systems, EMC control in lightning and grounding systems, novel materials and nanotechnology. All these problems must be faced always keeping in mind that the development of future leading technologies is the paramount key to meet the present economic challenges. The conference further aims at providing an overview of the scientific, technical, economic and social issues of electrical engineering applications under the hat of all the related environmental issues in order to give an impetus to the green economy and to present new developments in this area. The conference will provide a forum for leading corporate, academic and governmental people to discuss recent developments and set up collaborations. The four-day international conference will consist of plenary lectures and oral presentations by international experts, as well as poster sessions. We expect to welcome about 350 international participants from over 68 countries. We would like to give a warm welcome to this year’s EEEIC and look forward to meeting you over the four days of the conference. We hope that you have a memorable experience. Enjoy your conference!

Please consider that papers are scheduled into oral and poster sessions based on thematic coherence and not by paper quality. In either case, the full paper appears in IEEE Xplore, and there is no indication in Xplore as to whether the paper was presented orally or as a poster. 13 th 2015 IEEE 15 International Conference on Environment and Electrical Engineering June 10-13, 2015, Rome Instructions for the oral presentations PRESENTATION TIME: presentation time is critical; each paper is allocated 15 minutes for technical sessions, including time for questions, session-chair introductions, and any set up that is not completed in advance. We recommend that the presentation of your slides take about 12 minutes, leaving 3 minutes for introduction by the session chair and questions from the audience. To achieve appropriate timing, organize your slides around the points you intend to make, using no more than one slide per minute. A reasonable strategy is to allocate about 2 minutes per slide when there are equations or important key points to make, and one minute per slide when the content is less complex. Be prepared to begin your presentation as soon as the prior presenter has finished; it is important to keep on schedule. PRIOR TO YOUR PRESENTATION: come to the room during the break immediately prior to your session and upload your presentation to the computer in the room. Note: the presentation computer has ONLY a USB port; there is no CD-ROM or other disc drive. You must also meet with your Session Chair at this time so that your Session Chair is aware that you are present; your Session Chair may also have last-minute instructions for your presentation. EQUIPMENT PROVIDED: all lecture rooms will be equipped with a computer, a video projector, and in some of them a microphone. Each computer will have a USB port; there will be no other equipment available. Each computer will have a recent version of the Windows OS installed as well as Acrobat Reader software. While Powerpoint will also be provided, presenters are strongly urged to use PDF for their presentations to avoid issues with fonts and other problems. Remember to embed all your fonts into your PDF presentation. Keep in mind that some of the oral presentations will be given in halls that are quite large. When preparing your slides, make sure that they will be legible for the entire audience (i.e., use fonts of sufficient size). Instructions for poster presentations DIMENSIONS: for your poster, a board will be provided; the board is oriented in a “portrait” format and has dimensions of 90cm wide and 120cm tall (approximately 35in wide and 47in tall), for containg A0 posters (84,1 × 118,9 cm). Push tacks or velcro adhesive will be provided at the conference to mount your poster to the board. ORGANIZING YOUR POSTER: poster sessions are a good medium for authors to present papers and meet with interested attendees for in-depth technical discussions. In addition, attendees find the poster sessions a good way to sample many papers in parallel sessions. Thus it is important that you display your message clearly and noticeably to attract people who might have an interest in your paper. Carefully and completely prepare your poster well in advance of the conference. Try tacking up the poster before you leave for the conference to see what it will look like and to make sure that you have all of the necessary pieces. The title of your poster should appear at the top in CAPITAL letters about 25mm high. Below the title, put the author(s)’ name(s) and affiliation(s). The flow of your poster should be from the top left to the bottom right. Use arrows to lead your viewer through the poster. Use color for highlighting and to make your poster more attractive. Use pictures, diagrams, cartoons, figures, etc., rather than text wherever possible. Try to state your main result in 6 lines or less, in lettering about 15mm high so that people can read the poster from a distance. The smallest text on your poster should be at least 9mm high, and the important points should be in a larger size. 14 PRESENTING YOUR POSTER: prepare a short presentation of about 5 or 10 minutes that you can periodically give to those assembled around your poster throughout the poster session. If you need extra presentation materials, such as a video display or computer, you are required to bring them yourself; note that any equipment used in the poster area should be battery-operated, since power will not be provided on the floor. Each poster session is 2 hours long; a presenter must be present at your poster during the entirety of the session. If possible, more than one author should attend the session to aid in presentations and discussions, and to provide the presenters with the chance to rest or briefly view other posters. PRIOR TO YOUR PRESENTATION: please put up your poster during the break before your session starts, and take it down immediately after your session ends. Please go to the poster session 30 minutes before the session starting. EQUIPMENT PROVIDED: push tacks or velcro adhesive will be provided at the conference to mount your poster to the board. No printers are available on site. 15 th 2015 IEEE 15 International Conference on Environment and Electrical Engineering June 10-13, 2015, Rome PROGRAM AT GLANCE 16 17 th 2015 IEEE 15 International Conference on Environment and Electrical Engineering June 10-13, 2015, Rome PLENARY SESSION: keynotes on “State of the art on Renewables and Smart Grids in Europe and North America” Wednesday, June 10th, 2015 h. 11.00-13.00 Venue: Aula 1 “SMART GRIDS AS ENABLERS FOR SMART CITIES” Carlo Alberto Nucci, University of Bologna, Italy.

Nuclear fusion is an extraordinary opportunity for research institutions, universities and industries. This round table introduces the status and perspectives of nuclear fusion also to non-specialist researchers. The main international experiments will be presented. Scientists from all over the world have come together in these experiments to help meet mankind's energy needs. ITER is a large-scale scientific experiment intended to prove the viability of fusion as an energy source and to collect data for the design and operation of the first electricity-producing fusion power plant (DEMO). These facilities can be considered as complex electrical machines with requirements and outcomes in many fields, as power supplies, superconductors, special materials, radiofrequency devices, real-time measurement and control, vacuum technologies, computational electromagnetics, and so on. Italy is a pioneer in nuclear fusion research through ENEA, CNR, RFX, CREATE and several universities. Italy is proposing a new European research facility named Divertor Test Tokamak (DTT) to study the power exhaust problem and to support the ITER operations. 17:30-17:45 Overview on Fusion Research Giuseppe Mazzitelli ENEA Large Experiment Facilities 17:45-18:00 Education and Research in Fusion: the ITER Generation and Beyond Fabio Villone University of Cassino 18:00-18:15 Training in Power Supply Engineering Supported by the European Fusion Agreement Nicolas Dumas Atomic Energy and Alternative Energies Commission (CEA) 18:15-18:30 DTT: A New Facility for the Study of the Power Exhaust Problem Raffaele Albanese University of Naples Federico II and Consortium CREATE 18:30-18:45 A Spin-off Company for Compact Fusion Reactors Alan Sykes Tokamak Energy 18:45-19:00 Opportunities in Nuclear Fusion for Small and Medium-Sized Enterprises: the OCEM Experience Giuseppe Taddia OCEM Energy Technology 19:00-19:30 Open discussion 49 th 2015 IEEE 15 International Conference on Environment and Electrical Engineering June 10-13, 2015, Rome SATURDAY, JUNE 13TH, 2015 MORNING SESSIONS (M4) TECHNICAL SESSION 50 (M4-TS1): POWER ELECTRONICS AND COMPONENTS -
