Power Electronics and Applications Research Lab
Research Fellow
Job Description:
- Design and implementation of multilevel converters with integrated energy storage.
- Facilitate smaller and lighter energy storage solutions by integrating multiple battery chemistries into a single battery energy storage system that simultaneously optimizes both power and energy density.
- Design topologies to eliminate redundant layers of power electronics from a battery energy storage system (BESS) to achieve significant efficiency increase.
- Design novel circuit topologies to provide physical and electrical isolation of batteries to prevent faulty battery packs causing a cascading fire risk.
- Design and develop solar photovoltaic inverters with advanced controllers.
- Guiding Master and PhD students and preparing project reports.
Job Requirements:
- Candidate must possess a PhD degree in Electrical Engineering.
- Hands-on experience on the design and development of multilevel converter topologies.
- Experience on the development of grid connection control algorithms for power electronic converters.
- Experience on the control of power electronics converters for renewables (wind, solar, wave).
- Strong academic record and high-quality journal publications.
- Industrial experience is not required but highly recommended.
- Good interpersonal skills.
- Excellent teamwork awareness;
- Good communication and writing in English;
- Strong responsibility for research / work.
