The SAEE’s vision is in line with that of the international organisation, IEEE, in that it aims to improve global conditions through its activities of which the annual convention - SAEEC2011 - is a part of.
The technical sponsorship dictates that review processes are in place to ensure that papers presented at the SAEEC2011 are of the highest calibre in the industry. As the SAEE views the enhancement of the local energy efficiency knowledge pool in high priority, this process has become a requirement to ensure optimal delegate satisfaction.
