IEEE PES Generation, Transmission & Distribution International Conference and Exposition (T&D)

The ranking presented on this page features a comprehensive list of scientific conferences within the field of Engineering and Technology. Developed by Research.com, a renowned authority in providing reliable data and insights on scientific achievements across all major disciplines since 2014, this ranking serves as an essential resource for academics, researchers, and professionals seeking authoritative evaluations of conference impact.

The position of each conference in the ranking is determined by a unique bibliometric score formulated by Research.com experts. This score is carefully calculated using a combination of the estimated h-index and the number of prominent scientists who have participated in the conference across the preceding three years. The ranking incorporates Impact Score values collected as of 2024-11-27, ensuring the data’s accuracy and timeliness.

The ranking process entailed a meticulous review of more than 2,262 conferences, each selected after thorough scrutiny and rigorous analysis of over 26,934 scientific publications from the past three years. These documents were authored by 9,385 distinguished and accomplished scientists in the discipline of Engineering and Technology, reflecting the ranking’s depth and ambition to highlight excellence in the field.

To further enhance the transparency and credibility of our ranking system, we invite readers to learn more about the methodology utilized to compute these scores. Full details are available on our Methodology Page.

Papers citation over time

A key indicator for each conference is its effectiveness in reaching other researchers with the papers published at that venue.

The chart below presents the interquartile range (first quartile 25%, median 50% and third quartile 75%) of the number of citations of articles over time.

Publication chance based on affiliation

The publication chance index shows the ratio of articles published by the best research institutions at the conference edition to all articles published within that conference. The best research institutions were selected based on the largest number of articles published during all editions of the conference.

The chart below presents the percentage ratio of articles from top institutions (based on their ranking of total papers).Top affiliations were grouped by their rank into the following tiers: top 1-10, top 11-20, top 21-50, and top 51+. Only articles with a recognized affiliation are considered.

During the most recent 2016 edition, 13.31% of publications had an unrecognized affiliation. Out of the publications with recognized affiliations, 18.43% were posted by at least one author from the top 10 institutions publishing at the conference. Another 6.83% included authors affiliated with research institutions from the top 11-20 affiliations. Institutions from the 21-50 range included 19.80% of all publications and 54.95% were from other institutions.

Returning Authors Index

A very common phenomenon observed among researchers publishing scientific articles is the intentional selection of conferences they have already attended in the past. In particular, it is worth analyzing the case when the authors participate in the same conference from year to year.

The Returning Authors Index presented below illustrates the ratio of authors who participated in both a given as well as the previous edition of the conference in relation to all participants in a given year.

Returning Institution Index

The graph below shows the Returning Institution Index, illustrating the ratio of institutions that participated in both a given and the previous edition of the conference in relation to all affiliations present in a given year.

The experience to innovation index

Our experience to innovation index was created to show a cross-section of the experience level of authors publishing at a conference. The index includes the authors publishing at the last edition of a conference, grouped by total number of publications throughout their academic career (P) and the total number of citations of these publications ever received (C).

The group intervals were selected empirically to best show the diversity of the authors' experiences, their labels were selected as a convenience, not as judgment. The authors were divided into the following groups:

• Novice - P < 5 or C < 25 (the number of publications less than 5 or the number of citations less than 25),
• Competent - P < 10 or C < 100 (the number of publications less than 10 or the number of citations less than 100),
• Experienced - P < 25 or C < 625 (the number of publications less than 25 or the number of citations less than 625),
• Master - P < 50 or C < 2500 (the number of publications less than 50 or the number of citations less than 2500),
• Star - P ≥ 50 and C ≥ 2500 (both the number of publications greater than 50 and the number of citations greater than 2500).

The chart below illustrates experience levels of first authors in cases of publications with multiple authors.
