| Abstract |
Awareness of global climate change due to the high consumption of fossil fuels has stimulated worldwide research and innovation towards a CO2-free energy supply. To realize this energy transformation innovation is required not only on the power generation, energy storage and the consumption side, but also, more importantly on the energy distribution infrastructure. In all these sectors, power electronic energy conversion systems are needed. The presentation will focus on power electronic solutions for flexible electrical grid infrastructure, in particular on DC technologies that better serve wind farms, PV systems, factories, building heating and cooling systems and fast charging infrastructure in the urban environment. |
