We collaborate with the IEEE Education & Healthcare Facilities Committee; a subcommittee of the Industrial Applications Society, which provides a platform for leading practice discovery among electrical engineers who are responsible for electrotechnologies in school districts, colleges, universities and university-affiliated healthcare systems.   

In many cases, with research university power systems with upwards of 100 megawatts of base load supplying campuses and academic medical centers, many campus power systems are larger than investor owned, municipal or cooperatively-owned electrical utilities.   In recent years, many large educational organizations are selling their power systems to private industry to own and operate, for example.

The committee meets every other Tuesday — 14:00 Central European time and 2:00 PM Eastern time in the Americas.  Standards Michigan also hosts its own colloquium on Power at least once per month.  See our CALENDAR for the next online meeting; open to everyone.
