with technical exhibition

May 8 to 10 2012
Estrel Convention Center
in berlin
VGB KELI 2012
Conference Electrical
Engineering, C&I and IT in
Power Plants
Every two years, operators, manufacturers, insurers, authorities and
other experts meet to intensify their exchange of experiences,
findings and ideas in presentations and extensive discussion of
current topics in electrical engineering, I&C and information
processing. The presentations by operators are supplemented by
extensive exhibitions by manufacturers and further associates from
these fields, creating a background which makes the event an
international forum with the best possible conditions for establishing
and extending business and personal contacts.
KELI 2012 will also be a platform for discussion of the technical
challenges posed by current energy policy in Germany and Europe.
The focus will be on the following topics:
• Integration of renewable energy sources in the electricity grid
(system stability, challenges for the electrical, I&C and information
systems of all types of power plant)
• R equirements for holistic consideration of the functions of electrical,
I&C and information systems for all generation methods.
An attractive background programme will be arranged to comple-
ment the interesting presentations and discussions. We appreciate
that we can once again count on the support of the VDE-ETG and
VDI.
A forum will once again be organised for the young engineers of
tomorrow, with sponsored travel, accommodation, board and
conference documents for students.
The programme committee and VGB are pleased to invite you to the
KELI 2012 in Berlin.
