Advanced Power Electronic Applications in Rewable Energy Systems

Dr. Vuttipon Tarateeraseth
Srinakharinwirot University, Thailand

Abstract

With the rapid increase of electrical energy consumption and the impact of global warming effects, renewed challenging reliable and affordable renewable energy technologies are interested worldwide. In order to efficiently process electrical energy and to produce a flexible ac or dc output to match a variable or fixed load demand, advanced power electronic systems with affordable high performance power electronic devices are widely applied in renewable energy technologies, and are considered to be an integral part of power generation, power transmission/distribution and end-user applications. Moreover, to achieve such goals, currently technologies operate power converters in switch-mode techniques that cause the electromagnetic interference (EMI) problems as well. As a result, the scope of the session is covered the broad areas of advanced power electronic applications in renewable energy systems, the advanced power electronic applications in power systems, electromagnetic compatibility issues in renewable energy systems.
