Vision
Vision, objective, and success criterion within the funding period:
Within five years the future generation of power electronic products are 20 % more cost effective,
has 20 % reduced volume and weight. Added to that they have reduced the power losses
which contributes to a higher power efficiency. A joint development and research effort enabled
by the platform will include three universities and four Danish leading high-technology companies
and the network organisation CEES.
The success of the platform is quantified in the following:
- Synergy resulting from joint technology development
- Reduced cost by at least 20%, min. 20% less weight, volume and improved efficiency
- To demonstrate the usability of new technologies in future products
- Technology platform for new intelligent power electronic concepts
- Tools that can be used for future power electronic equipment design
- Attract and facilitate new companies exploiting platform knowledge
- Fast and flexible incorporation of ideas for potential exploitation
The platform supports each company's research and development of own products, and initiates
future new products which have a common commercial interest such as targeting intelligent
handling and use greener energy supply - exemplified by "Smart Grid", "Energy Efficient
Production " "Renewable energy production ","Smart Cities "," Energy Neutral Buildings”, "
Smart House "," Mobile Power ".
The platform delivers knowledge within:
- New hardware design methods
- Intelligent control methods for power electronic systems
- New device technologies
- Intelligent communication and interaction between system components
- Interconnection technology and management of complex / embedded systems
