Hendrik Antoon Lorentz

Lorentz' work in physics was wide in scope, but his central aim was to construct a single theory to explain the relationship of electricity, magnetism, and light. With Pieter Zeeman he won the Nobel Prize for Physics in 1902 for his theory of electro-magnetic radiation, which gave rise to Albert Einstein’s special theory of relativity.

From the enormous amount of websites, Phase to Phase has made a selection for you. In this selection we focussed on those institutes that aim at the electrical infrastructure in general and at the network analysis in particular.

		CIGRE (International Council on Large Electric Systems) is a non-governmental and non profit-making International Association based in France. It aims to facilitate and develop the exchange of engineering knowledge and information between engineering personnel and technical specialists in all countries as regards generation and high voltage transmission of electricity.
		CIRED is the international forum for professionals in de electricity distribution industry. The event is organised every 2 years in various locations in Europe.
		EPRI is a nonprofit organization committed to providing science and technology-based solutions to the energy industry. EPRI manages a far-reaching program of scientific research, technology development, and product implementation.
		Eurelectric was created through a merger of the two major associations representing European electric power companies, plus associates and affiliates on three other continents: Unipede and the old Eurelectric. Eurelectric seeks to contribute to the competitiveness of the industry, to provide effective representation for the industry in public affairs, and to promote the role of electricity in the advancement of society.
		The IEE promotes the advancement of electrical, manufacturing and information engineering and facilitates the exchange of knowledge and ideas. The institute raises the standing and visibility of the profession and maintains a high standard of professional conduct.
		The Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers is a non-profit, technical professional association. The IEEE promotes the engineering process of creating, developing, integrating, sharing, and applying knowledge about electro and information technologies and sciences for the benefit of humanity and the profession.
		Magazine of the IEEE for technical and scientific news.
		KEMA is an independent company whose activities focus on providing customers with solutions to their technical problems. The majority of the customers are in businesses related to the generation, transmission, and distribution of electricity.
		Transmission & Distribution World is edited for engineers and operating professionals in the electric power industry. Feature articles are written primarily by technical editors and industry professionals in the user and manufacturer groups.
		The German Electricity Association (VDEW) is the trade association of the electricity supply industry in the Federal Republic of Germany. Its members include all the large, virtually all the medium-sized and most of the smaller companies involved in the puplic supply of electricity in Germany.
