Abstract - The energy paradigms in many countries (e.g., Germany and Denmark) have experienced a significant change from fossil-based resources to clean renewables (e.g., wind turbines and photovoltaics) in the past few decades. The scenario of highly penetrated renewables is going to be further enhanced– Denmark expects to be 100 percent fossil-free by 2050.
Consequently, it is required that the production, distribution and use of the energy should be as technologically efficient as possible and incentives to save energy at the end-user should also be strengthened. In order to realize the transition smoothly and effectively, energy conversion systems, currently based on power electronics technology, will again play an essential role in this energy paradigm shift. Using highly efficient power electronics in power generation, power transmission/distribution and end-user application, together with advanced control solutions, can pave the way for renewable energies.
In light of this, some of the most emerging renewable energies —, e.g., wind energy and photovoltaic, which by means of power electronics are changing character as a major part in the electricity generation —, are discussed. Issues like technology development, implementation, power converter technologies, control of the systems, and synchronization are addressed. Special focuses are paid on the future trends in power electronics for those systems like how to lower the cost of energy and to develop emerging power devices and better reliability tool.

All are invited to attend the talk ....

The Department of Electrical Engineering, SVNIT is organizing a short-term course titled “Control of Power Electronic Converters in Renewable and Transportation Applications” under the aegis of NaMPET Phase III from 28 Sept - 02 Oct, 2023. It will be an all-India-level event, and we expect academic and industry participants from all parts of the country. The Programme will immensely help the participants enhance their knowledge in the area of power electronics.
