2025 Winter Power Meeting and School (REPI)

ITSON Náinari, Ciudad Obregón

The 2025 Winter Power Meeting and School (REPI) was held on February 20 and 21 at the Náinari Campus of the Sonora Institute of Technology. The event exceeded all expectations, bringing together 190 attendees, 85.6% of whom were undergraduate students. The event also gathered graduate students, academics, and professionals from the electrical sector.

Keynote presentations were given by companies such as CFE Calificados, Fortress Power, the National Energy Control Center, Powerstein Sonora, and Siemens, who shared advances in electromobility, renewable sources, and energy storage.

Also noteworthy was the poster competition, which allowed students and academics to present their research.
