Funded Activity Summary

A Next Generation Smart Solid-State Transformer for Power Grid Applications. The research aims to design, develop and implement a next generation, compact and light-weight, smart solid-state transformer with a newly developed high-frequency magnetic link and power converters that will provide a better and faster voltage transformation and regulation and support the power grids. The proposed research will revolutionize the power grids by replacing the traditional transformer with a new device made of solid-state power modules that will have multi-feature and multi-function ability and control facilities. The technology developed in this research will help make energy networks more efficient, smart, reliable and flexible, having direct benefits to renewable energy growth, with long-term impact on national economy.
