As the world’s leading technical conference and exposition for energy conversion solutions, ECCE provides a unique opportunity to engineers, researchers, students, and other professionals from the broad spectrum of energy conversion for exchange of technical knowledge, networking, and exposure to the latest technology trends. ECCE is unique in our emphasis on integrated systems, presenting the best in contemporary energy con- version research alongside innovations from more traditional component topics. ECCE 2016 features keynote speeches from Prof. Arun Majumdar from Stanford University and former Director of ARPA-E; Mr. Blake Moret, CEO of Rockwell Automation; Prof. Massoud Amin from University of Minnesota; Mr. Michael Regelski, CTO/Electrical Sector of Eaton Corporation; and Dr. Guangfu Tang, Vice President, Global Energy Interconnection Research Institute of China. We are extremely fortunate to have these distinguished leaders from industry and academia to share their visions and wisdoms with us on the opening day of the conference. ECCE 2016 features 925 technical presentations which are selected from an all-time record high 1717 digests submitted from across the globe, organized in 16 parallel oral sessions and 3 consecutive poster dialog sessions. In addition, 7 special sessions are organized by the field experts on timely and practical topics including “Cyber Security of the Grid”, “Modeling and Simulation”, “SiC Devices”, “Electricity and Water Nexus”, and “Advanced Electrical Machines”. Our Town Hall Meetings this year include two moderated debates on “Industrial Internet of Things: Why Do We Care?” and “Close to the Edge: The New Frontier of the Grid” on Tuesday. On Sunday, we have 12 tutorials offering an in-depth discussion of import- ant and complex technical topics which combine practical application with theory. We are very pleased to acknowledge the support of Wolong Electric (Platinum), ABB (Gold), Danfoss (Gold), Eaton Corporation (Gold), General Motors (Gold), Rockwell Automation (Gold), Delta (Silver), Halla Mechatronics (Silver), and Keysight Technologies (Silver). Their support and participation has created a very strong industrial relationship and relevance. We will have 60 exhibitors in the Exhibition Hall on Monday and Tuesday. The exhibitors will showcase their state-of-the-art technologies, products, and solutions, creating a highly interactive networking environment when mixing with the poster sessions and student demonstrations on the same floor. Milwaukee offers a unique experience to millions of visitors each year, ranging from its German heritage to its famous beers to Harley Davidson motorcycles to the beautiful lake shore. We will make ECCE 2016 not only a successful technical forum but also a memorable social event for the attendees. On Sunday, we will host our Welcome Reception in the Milwaukee Art Museum, with its landmark modern architecture, and a great view of Lake Michigan. On Wednesday evening, we expect to see you all at the ECCE 2016 Oktoberfest Night to enjoy German folk music and dance, and special Milwaukee brewed Oktoberfest beers. We will also have a special Award Luncheon on Thursday to celebrate the great achievement of some of our colleagues. Technical and city walking tours are also organized during the week. For many of our attendees, the ECCE conference is like a homecoming event where you can catch up with old friends and meet new ones. ECCE 2016 provides two free-to-use lounges in the convention center. The IAS/PELS Community Lounge can be reserved for exclusive use for group events (school or company reunion, or a quick project review meeting, etc.) on a first-come-first-serve basis. The Creative Digressions Lounge does not need reservation and provides a place for colleagues and friends to hang out and perhaps brainstorms on a few ideas generated during the conference. Complimentary coffee and refreshments will be served in both rooms through the day. For our first time ECCE attendees, we extend you a special welcome by inviting you to a first timer session just before the Sunday Welcome Reception event. I would like to express my utmost gratitude to the members of the organizing committee, the technical program committee, the steering committee, and Courtesy Associates, who with hard work and selfless dedication have made possible this event. I would like to thank PELS and IAS for their sponsorship and stewardship, and the generous support of our Platinum, Gold, and Silver corporate partners. I would like to thank each and every one of you as a presenter, an attendee, an exhibitor, a volunteer, or any combined role of the above for your contribution and participation. Once again I welcome you to ECCE 2016. Together we help deliver a more sustainable future. John Shen General Chair WELCOME FROM GENERAL CHAIR 2016 IEEE ENERGY CONVERSION CONGRESS & EXPOSITION® 3 Welcome from Technical Program Chairs Whether it is power converters, motor/motor drives, renewable energy, devices, controls, LED lighting, smart grid or the countless other technical sub-fields related to electrical energy conversion – we are in a period of immense opportunity for our industry. Since the start of the ECCE conference series, there has been a tremendous growth in the numbers of technical papers submitted and attendees to the conference. We are pleased that you consider ECCE to be a flagship conference and worthy of your time as an author and attendee. This year we have received 1715 digests – more than a 10% increase over the previous record set in 2015. We are able to accept 925 papers into 16 parallel oral sessions and 3 poster sessions. This represents a very competitive 53.9% acceptance rate. In addition, several presentation-only special sessions are scheduled throughout the week. All submitted digests underwent a rigorous and fair peer review process by subject domain experts. Each paper received a min- imum of three (3) reviews with the average of approximately 4.2 reviews per digest. The review process is managed by the Technical Program Committee (TPC), which is comprised of the Chairs, Vice Chairs, and Topic Chairs. Each Reviewer
