Research Activities
Electric Machine Drives
The development of high-power medium voltage variable speed drives is an inevitable research area to meet the ever-increasing industrial production levels, economic and zero carbon footprint. We PEARL research group especially work towards finding optimal power electronic converters for medium voltage drive applications to enhance their performance, reliability and power density.

Grid Integrated Converters
The study of grid integration analyses the framework for evaluating a power system with high penetration levels of power electronics coupled renewable energy sources (RES). These renewables are integrated to power grid through power electronics converters in both Grid following (GFL) mode and grid forming (GFM) mode.
High Power Converters
The high voltage transmission systems are one of the most crucial technologies to achieve a green energy sector. The proficient high power converters are the milestones on the path of sustainable future.
Wide Bandgap Devices and Medium Voltage Converters
The introduction of wide band gap devices such as silicon carbide (SiC) MOSFETs has brought a revolutionary in the field of power electronic converters especially for Medium Voltage (MV) applications.
