ITEC is aimed at helping the industry in the transition from conventional vehicles to advanced electrified vehicles. The conference is focused on components, systems, standards, and grid interface technologies, related to efficient power conversion for all types of electrified transportation, including electric vehicles, hybrid electric vehicles, and plug-in hybrid electric vehicles (EVs, HEVs, and PHEVs) as well as heavy-duty, rail, and off-road vehicles and airplanes and ships.
Paper and presentation proposals are being invited in the following or related technical track topic areas:
• Power Electronics and Electric Motor Drives
• Electric Machines and Actuators
• Battery and Battery Management
• Electric, Hybrid Electric, and Plug-in Hybrid Electric Vehicle System Architectures
• Smart Grid, Electrical Infrastructure, and V2G
• Electrification of Heavy-Duty and Off-Road Vehicles
• Fuel Cells and Applications in Transportation
• Electrical Systems and Components for Sea, Undersea, Air, and Space Vehicles
• Modeling, Simulation, and Control
• Standards, Policies, and Regulations for Transportation Electrification
Paper Submission Guidelines
Prospective authors are invited to submit their paper proposals through the conference webpage (itec-conf.com). Each paper proposal must include:
• Technical track name, paper title, name(s) of author(s), affiliation(s), mailing address(es), and e-mail address(es). 
If there are multiple authors, please identify the corresponding author.
• An abstract of maximum 100 words and a digest of maximum 5 pages (single-column, double spaced, including figures and tables).
Special Presentation (SP) only Sessions
Authors who would like to present their work, but do not wish to contribute a full paper can submit a 1-page digest for “Special Presentation (SP) only Sessions.” A regular paper is not needed. If accepted, speakers could make a presentation at the conference. Such presentations and 1-page digests will not be published in IEEE Xplore.
