Abstract :
Peer recognition is an important element of every professional organization. Every year IEEE and Power & Energy Society members, your colleagues, make countless outstanding and significant technical, professional and service contributions to the Society, the profession, and for the betterment of society. From engineering breakthroughs, to technological advancements, to scientific innovations and discovery, any single engineering discovery can have a profound impact on society. The Awards Program is an important initiative of IEEE and PES. Our goal has been to honor and recognize those individuals who have transcended the status quo in the name of excellence in leadership, innovation and performance. The program recognizes both established and rising engineers whose pioneering spirit and demonstrated inventiveness, throughout their careers has inspired others within the profession.
