Residents of the Caribbean region are among the first to see direct climate change impacts, including more frequent and severe storms, and sea level rise. However, islands are taking action and leading an energy transition that not only improves their safety, independence, resilience, and economic development, but also shows that islands can provide solutions to the global climate challenge. Each island is unique, with different objectives for their energy future and different options available. At the same time, islands in the Caribbean have utilized common practices to plan for and implement a shift to clean energy, rather than the imported fossil fuel that is commonly used. Resilience has been a core priority in both the overall design and the implementation of this energy transition. The experience of islands in creating an energy future that is resilient, reliable, low-cost, and sustainable can inform similar transitions in other countries and regions.

Our guest speaker this month is Dr. Sid Suryanarayananan. Dr. Suryanarayanan is an electrical engineer focused on power system planning, infrastructure strategy, and emerging large-scale energy demand, with particular interest in how AI computing is reshaping grid expansion. This is a co-hosted meeting with the IEEE Denver PES/IAS, IEEE Denver Dine & Learn and IEEE Young Professionals. Note that this event is at Denver University Engineering Building. Dinner will be provided. Event open to all IEEE members and non-members. Schedule 6:15 – Check-in, Chapter Business and Networking 6:30 – Dinner Served 7:00 – Presentation 8:00 – Adjourn Title: From Queue to Energization - Rethinking Power Capacity Expansion in the AI Load Era Summary: Large AI data centers are increasingly being planned at hundreds of megawatts of power. While computing infrastructure can be deployed quickly, expanding grid infrastructure often takes much longer. This talk examines the implications of that timing gap and discusses what it may mean for power system planning as AI-driven demand continues to grow. Speaker(s): Suryanarayanan, Room: Conference Space on The Fifth-Floor Atrium, Bldg: Engineering and Computer Science , 2155 E Wesley Ave, University of Denver, Denver, Colorado, United States, 80210, Virtual: https://events.vtools.ieee.org/m/551941

Our first seminar collaboration with MathWorks back in November may have been a trial run, but seeing us back together in less than six months could be the start of something great—maybe even a habit! The IEEE AESS-SPS Joint Denver Chapters and Mile High Country Crows Chapter are teaming up again with MathWorks for a Hands-on Radar Workshop on April 30th. It’ll be a lot like last time—good food, technical deep dives, and a chance to catch up with everyone in the Denver area RF, EW, Radar, and EMSO fields. Darius Subacius and Steve Ajemian from MathWorks will lead us through interactive radar modeling in MATLAB Online. Since this is hands-on, please bring your laptop so you can gain direct experience with the simulation tools. We can’t wait to see both the familiar faces from last time and some new ones, too! - When: Thursday, April 30 | 4:00 PM – 6:00 PM - Where: Zeta Associates, 6200 S.

Join the IEEE Power Electronics Society (PELS) for an informal technical discussion with Dr. Bowen Yang on emerging power architectures for AI data centers. Dinner will be provided, along with time for networking with local engineers and professionals. As demand for AI computing continues to grow, data centers are exploring new approaches to power distribution—particularly the transition from medium-voltage (MV) systems to low-voltage DC (LVDC) buses such as 800V DC. Solid-state transformers (SSTs) are one of the technologies being considered to enable this shift. This session will be an open, high-level conversation rather than a formal presentation. Topics may include: - The role of SSTs in future data center power architectures - Considerations when moving from MV systems to 800V DC distribution - Reliability and controllability in power-electronics-based systems - Practical challenges, tradeoffs, and industry perspectives Attendees are encouraged to ask questions, share experiences, and engage in the discussion. Schedule 5:30 PM – Check-in, Chapter Business, and Networking 6:00 PM – Dinner Served 6:00–7:00 PM – Technical Discussion 7:00 PM – Adjourn Speaker(s): , Bowen Yang 1211 Avery St, Unit 101, Golden, Colorado, United States, 80403
