Smart power and energy technologies are key supports and core drivers for the global energy system's transition from traditional fossil fuels to green and low-carbon energy. As the global energy transition accelerates, higher demands are placed on safe, efficient, low-cost, and sustainable power and energy systems, promoting the rapid development of related technologies such as smart power systems, renewable energy grid integration.

To ensure the safety, reliability, and economy of energy during the green and low-carbon transition, it is urgent to strengthen the exchange and sharing of technological innovation achievements and best practices globally. Against this background, the IEEE International Conference on Smart Power and Energy Technologies (IEEE SPET 2025), jointly organized by the IEEE Wuhan Chapter and Wuhan University, was successfully held in 2025, attracting active participation from experts and scholars from universities, research institutions, and the energy and power industry both domestically and internationally.

Building on the success of its inaugural conference, the 2nd IEEE International Conference on Smart Power and Energy Technologies (IEEE SPET 2026) will be held in Wuhan, China, from September 18th to 19th, 2026. The conference will continue and expand upon the academic focus of the first conference, further concentrating on cutting-edge topics such as smart power systems, renewable energy and their grid connection technologies, energy storage, the energy internet, and the application of digitalization and artificial intelligence in the power and energy sector.

This conference aims to create a high-level, international academic exchange platform, bringing together global researchers, engineering experts, power and energy industry practitioners, and young scholars. Through keynote speeches, invited reports, technical forums, thematic forums, and poster presentations, the conference will promote cross-disciplinary exchange and deep integration between academia and industry.

We sincerely invite experts, scholars, and industry colleagues from around the world to visit Wuhan and actively participate in 2026 IEEE SPET, to share the latest research results and engineering practice experience in the field of smart power and energy, and work together to promote the development of the global energy system towards a greener, lower-carbon, and more sustainable future.
