DESCRIPTION:The Department of Electrical Engineering at the École de Techn
 ologie Supérieure and the Power Electronics Society (PELS) chapter in col
 laboration with the Industrial Electronics Society (IES)\, Industry Applic
 ations Society (IAS)\, and Power &amp; Energy Society (PES) chapters in the IE
 EE Montreal Section cordially invites you to a seminar presented by Prof. 
 Fred Wang\, Condra Chair of Excellence in Power Electronics\, and the Tech
 nical Director of CURENT\, at the University of Tennessee\, Knoxville\, TN
 . Please register using the link provided below.\n\nSeminar Abstract\nThe 
 focus of the talk will be on SiC benefits for grid power electronics at bo
 th the converter and system levels. The converter level benefits include s
 ize\, weight\, efficiency\, and/or potential cost reduction. The system-le
 vel benefits include improved power quality and enhanced stability. The re
 search needs will also be discussed.\n\nSpeaker(s): Prof. Fred Wang\, \n\n
