Abstract :
The electrical energy domain is very dynamic. The paper presents a vision for the future at the horizon of 2030 as it is described by an IEEE recent publication. A new wave of electrification is at horizon; the entire new infrastructure in a modern society is electrical one. Electrical engineers must innovate, research, project, realize and develop new home (smart home), new electrical networks (smart grid), new sources (renewable) new system of powering electric cars (car plug-in) modern electric vehicles (electric and hybrid cars, trucks and buses, metro and tramway) high speed train, modern airplanes, all other electro-technological equipments and many others power electrical applications. At the basis of many new products are new and revolutionary materials as, for example, nano-structured, cryogenic and others. The real challenge: Smart solutions for better life!
