Power Electronic Trends from APEC 2026

The IEEE Applied Power Electronics Conference (APEC) 2026 was held this year in San Antonio, Texas, bringing together people from around the world to learn from, network, and do business with one another. A world-class exhibition of the latest in power electronics solutions, there was also a host of other activities at APEC, well worth looking into.

This year, there were 5,452 registrations, a record, with an increase in exhibitors, 319 vs. 314 in 2025. In this podcast, a group of editors who attended the event, Alix Paultre, Lee Goldberg, and James Morra, talk about the show and the technology trends they saw there.
