Prof. Xu She
Power Electronics Innovation in Industry
The presenter will share the philosophy of driving power electronics innovation in industry and how these technologies could make meaningful impacts to our society. The presentation will be divided into three parts. In the first part, the presenter will share his experience in R&D and innovation in industry. The thought process to identify and solve the right problems will be shared. To illustrate these, a few examples will be provided in the second and third parts. The second part will introduce innovation on power electronics design from equipment manufacturer point of view, with special focus on advanced SiC power conversion technologies for industrial applications. The third part will focus on system innovation and explore how to leverage power electronics technologies to reinvent system architectures towards carbon neutral society.
