NAPS-2023 will be hosted by Western Carolina University (WCU). WCU was founded in 1889 and provides more than 115 undergraduate majors and concentrations and more than 40 graduate programs. The theme of the 55th North American Power Symposium (NAPS) is "Broadening Participation in Sustainable Power Engineering, Technology, and Education". NAPS is a student-centric technical conference in the power and energy systems field. Since its inception in 1969, NAPS has been bringing together students, faculty, and industrial partners from premier institutions and organizations involved in power engineering and research. The conference is held annually at a university in the United States or Canada. In addition to the traditional technical sessions, NAPS 2023 will focus on broadening undergraduate student participation through a dedicated track for undergraduate research. NAPS events have been historically supported by IEEE-PES and National Science Foundation since its inception.
