At the closing session, Abdelkrim Benchaib, General Chairman of EPE’20, received the EPE flag, on stage, from Mario Marchesoni, General Chairman of EPE’19, in the presence of Leo Lorenz, President of the EPE association. During this conference, Abdelkrim Benchaib was also elected as a member of the executive committee of EPE ECCE Europe for 4 more years.
This Tuesday the 10th of July, Michel MERMET-GUYENNET presented a keynote speech at the 13th IEEE International Conference on Power Electronics and Drive Systems (PEDS 2019) in Toulouse, following the invitation of Bernado COGO from the Antoine de Saint Exupéry Institute of Technology (IRT Saint Exupéry). In his paper, Michel MERMET-GUYENNET presented power electronics technologies for MV and HV grids.
The Energy Management Control of MMC by SuperGrid Institute was presented in Japan this week at the CIGRE-IEC 2019 Conference on EHV and UHV (AC & DC), generating stimulating discussions about this new technology.
Gate-oxide technology weakness is a main reliability issue of Silicon Carbide MOSFET transistors. The threshold voltage shift is a critical phenomenon that addresses the reliability of industrial power applications. It is important to have a better understanding of the phenomena implied in the gate threshold voltage shift. In this context, HTGB test is proposed and the resulting gate oxide stress is studied and discussed in this paper.
Robustness study for the 1.7 kV SiC MOSFET is presented. After evaluation of the critical energy required for failure, devices were submitted to repetitive short-circuits conditions.
From 27 to 31 August, SuperGrid Institute participate at the CIGRE Technical Exhibition 2018: the leading Power Systems Event. Posters, workshops, sessions… you will meet many of our SuperGrid Institute experts, and of course at our stand n°243, available to network and discuss.
This poster describes the DC-DC converter technology intended for Medium Voltage Direct Current grids. The benefits of the proposed technology are highlighted for the DC collector for offshore wind farms.
For 40 years, the biannual conference ISH (International Symposium on High Voltage Engineering) has permitted to researchers all around the world to meet and share their research in the high voltage field. The 2017 edition took place from August 28 to September 01 in Buenos Aires, Argentina.
The International Association for Hydro-Environment Engineering and Research (IAHR), founded in 1935, is a worldwide independent organisation of engineers and water specialists working in fields related to the hydro-environmental sciences and their practical application. The 28th IAHR Symposium on Hydraulic Machinery and Systems took place in Grenoble on July.
EPE ECCE Europe is the largest conference on power electronics and its applications. SuperGrid Institute targeted this conference to enlighten its research and results for HVDC, MTDC and grid related subjects.
