Technical Reports

PES Technical Reports describe the process, progress, or results of technical research/standard or the state of a technical research problem/standard.  It provides an avenue for the PES Technical Council and its Technical Committees to address a subject that doesn’t necessarily lend itself to a standard, application guide or recommended practice, though it could form the basis of a standard or guide later.  A technical report may address a subject within the power & energy area that requires more information than can be published in a magazine article, or a journal or conference paper.  It could be utilized to document the basis, or background information, for requirements within a PES developed standard; document the results and conclusions of an PES industry survey; address emerging technologies and industry issues; development of roadmaps for tactical direction in a specific subject area; or document technical or policy positions on industry practices.
