Hosted by WELCOME TO UPEC 2009 IN GLASGOW

It is our privilege and pleasure to welcome you to the 44th Universities’ Power Engineering Conference in Glasgow, Scotland from 1 to 4 September 2009. UPEC has been long-established as a major annual international forum for the presentation, exchange and discussion of information concerning new trends in electric power engineering. As well as universities, there will be contributions from utilities, manufacturers and consultancies. UPEC presents a valuable opportunity to actively exchange ideas and network with fellow delegates from around the world.

The first full UPEC conference was held in Glasgow back in 1967, so it is particularly poignant for the local organising committee to welcome the conference and delegates back to the city this year. As ever, the conference will provide an excellent opportunity to meet old friends, make new ones and become better informed about the latest developments in the field of power engineering. These are particularly important now as the world faces up to major challenges in energy and transport for which talented young engineers and innovations will be essential.

The high number of contributions submitted to the conference is testimony to its continuing appeal. A total of 436 submissions were received, and after a two stage review process a final technical programme incorporating nearly 300 papers has been established. These various contributions will be presented across parallel sessions, running from Wednesday 2 September to Friday 4 September 2009. Furthermore, the programme of parallel paper sessions will be preceded by the UPEC tutorial on Tuesday 1 September. This is included in the conference fee and will feature presentations from internationally renowned experts on the theme of “Powering the Low Carbon Future: Technology Challenges and Prospects”. As a rare opportunity to hear so many leading practitioners gathered in one place to address offshore wind, carbon capture and storage, next generation nuclear fission, tidal generation and wave power, we look forward to welcoming a large and interested audience.

To support good technical engagement at UPEC, the papers have been made available to pre-registered delegates on the conference web site. The proceedings are also available at Conference on a CD – to minimise waste, no paper copies will be printed by the organisers. Those papers presented at Conference will be preserved as conference proceedings and archived on IEEE Xplore for ongoing reference by the power engineering community.

The organisation of UPEC has been supported by the dedicated efforts of many, including the hard working members of the Local Organising Committee, the International Steering Committee and the conference support teams at the University of Strathclyde. The conference has also been enhanced by the participation of our supporters and exhibitors, for which thanks is due.

Glasgow, with a population of around 650,000, is Scotland’s largest city, the commercial capital of Scotland and one of the liveliest and most cosmopolitan destinations in Europe. While formerly known for building ships, locomotives and powerful machines, the city has been reborn as a centre of style and vitality set against a backdrop of outstanding Victorian architecture. It is also blessed by being surrounded by some of the most breathtaking scenery in Western Europe. Glasgow boasts world famous art collections, the best shopping in the United Kingdom outside London and over 20 wonderful museums and galleries, each with its own individual collection and events programme, and all with free admission. And being within the city centre, the conference is within easy reach of the many visitor attractions. Furthermore, the city is able to boast having Europe’s largest onshore windfarm at Whitelee located nearby, just to the South of the city.

The Local Organising Committee has made every effort to ensure your stay in Glasgow is professionally fruitful and socially enjoyable. Various social events have been arranged throughout the week including a conference banquet in Glasgow’s Science Centre on the banks of the River Clyde and a visit to the Falkirk Wheel and Stirling Castle. Accompanying persons will also be looked after with a varied programme of visits. We trust you will enjoy your time with us.

The City of Glasgow Glasgow, the City of Culture, possesses an exceptional cultural and architectural heritage, with many museums & galleries, stunning architecture, cutting edge design, excellent shopping and numerous reputed restaurants and cafés.

Access to Glasgow

By Air: Glasgow International Airport (www.glasgowairport.com) is located just eight miles (13 km) west of Glasgow City Centre and services direct flights from many European cities, including the key hubs of London, Amsterdam, Brussels, Copenhagen, Frankfurt and Paris. Onward travel from Glasgow International Airport is available by bus, taxi or hire car. (Bus numbers 500 and 757 connect the airport to the city centre and cost around £4.50 single or £6.50 for a period return; a taxi to the city centre would cost around £20-25).

Glasgow Prestwick International Airport (www.gpia.co.uk) is located thirty miles (48 km) south of Glasgow. A railway station is adjacent to Prestwick Airport with regular direct trains to Glasgow city centre. A 50% discount on train tickets can be obtained by showing flight tickets when purchasing rail tickets for travel between Prestwick Airport and Glasgow.

Edinburgh Airport (www.edinburghairport.com) is approximately 62 km from the University of Strathclyde and 12 km from Edinburgh city centre. Airlink buses into the city depart from outside the terminal entrance and operate 24 hours a day, seven days a week, with a journey time of 25 minutes. Edinburgh’s main rail station (Waverley), in the city centre can be reached by taxi or bus. Edinburgh’s other rail station (Haymarket), is also on the bus route from airport to city centre. Trains from both these stations can be taken to most destinations in Scotland and England. The taxi rank at Edinburgh Airport is outside the UK and Ireland arrivals hall. The average fare to the city centre is £16.

By Bus: National Express and CityLink buses operate from many destinations in Britain to Buchanan Street Bus Station in Glasgow city centre. See, for example, www.nationalexpress.com

By Road: The main M74 north/south motorway allows quick, easy access to the entire region. Approaching from the south follow the M74 motorway past Hadrian’s Wall through the heart of the region and on to the M8 which passes through Glasgow city centre. The Clyde Valley Tourist Route (via the A73, A72 and A702) offers motorists a relaxed and scenic alternative through the South Lanarkshire countryside.

Approaching from the north, the M9 motorway takes you through North Lanarkshire to Glasgow and from the east the M8 from Edinburgh travels through Glasgow city centre and beyond to the picturesque towns and villages of Inverclyde.

11 Power ahead.

Five million people rely on our Central Networks team to maintain an efficient and reliable electricity supply. We rely on a team of highly skilled engineers to see we deliver it. When it comes to keeping the lights on, performance and reliability are everything – especially when our sights are firmly set on becoming the UK’s best distribution company. Of course, with an ageing network like ours, we’re facing some real challenges for the future. Like how we’ll incorporate increasing numbers of renewable energy generators, properly maintain the network and deliver tough carbon reduction targets. But plans are already underway. As well as being the first distribution network operator to allow renewable energy generators to connect to our network using dynamic overhead line ratings, we’re developing comprehensive plans to reinforce and replace the network – using the very latest technology to help us do it. It’s a multimillion pound investment, and many of the solutions put in place now could shape the future of energy distribution for years to come. So as you would expect we’re also investing in the very best engineers to put our plans into practice. Each and every one of our engineers takes personal accountability for solving the problems they face, rising to new technical challenges every day. And as well as looking at the sustainability of our network, they’re helping our customers develop their own low carbon schemes too. For them, ‘keeping the lights on’ is about much more than a business strategy; it’s about being part of a dedicated team, taking real care of customers and providing a safe and reliable service to be proud of.
