DESCRIPTION:The IEEE Hyderabad Section is pleased to present the 2026 itera
 tion of the Faraday Memorial Lecture\, an annual lecture series instituted
  in 1991 to commemorate the 200th birth anniversary of Michael Faraday\, w
 hose pioneering work on electromagnetic induction laid the foundations of 
 modern electrical engineering.\n\nFaraday’s discoveries transformed our 
 understanding of electricity and magnetism and ultimately enabled technolo
 gies that power modern civilization. More than 150 years later\, the princ
 iples he established continue to underpin the electrical infrastructure th
 at connects our homes\, industries and societies.\n\nHeld annually on 22 S
 eptember\, the birth anniversary of Michael Faraday\, the Faraday Memorial
  Lecture brings together eminent engineers and scientists to reflect on th
 e evolution of electrical technology and its future. Over the years\, the 
 lecture has featured distinguished personalities from India and abroad\, i
 ncluding Prof. Amulya K. N. Reddy\, Prof. C. C. Chan\, Prof. M. Poloujadof
 f\, Prof. Bimal K. Bose\, Prof. Arun G. Phadke\, Dr. N. Hingorani\, Padmas
 ri B. L. Deekshatulu and several other eminent experts.\n\nThe 2026 lectur
 e\, titled “From Induction to Intelligent Grids: Bridging Legacy and Inn
 ovation\,” will explore how the fundamental principles established by Fa
 raday continue to shape the rapidly evolving power sector.\n\nThe lecture 
 will trace the journey from Faraday’s early experiments in electromagnet
 ic induction to today’s complex\, interconnected power systems. It will 
 examine the challenges emerging from large-scale renewable energy integrat
 ion\, inverter-based resources\, grid digitization and the modernization o
 f ageing electrical infrastructure.\n\nLooking ahead\, the session will ex
 plore the convergence of physics-based modelling\, artificial intelligence
 \, long-duration energy storage and resilient smart transmission systems\,
  and how these technologies are transforming the conventional power grid i
 nto a dynamic and intelligent ecosystem.\n\nThe lecture will also highligh
 t the increasingly important connection between academic research and indu
 strial application\, emphasizing how engineers can combine fundamental sci
 entific understanding with emerging technologies to address the energy tri
 lemma and work towards a sustainable\, resilient and carbon-neutral energy
  future.\n\nSpeaker(s): Shri Venkata Sivaram Vaddamanu\n\nThe Plaza Hotel\
