Research activities
The research activities conducted at EPEU involve two main streams of focus: power systems and markets, and power & energy conversion. Research is carried out through PhD theses and collaborative projects with public and/or private partners. More specifically, our group carries out researches in the following main topics:
- Smart grids and micro-grids (data analytics, long-term planning, interactions models, power quality aspects)
- Energy markets
- Net zero energy builds and districts (energy management, scheduling and control)
- Renewable energies and storage systems (wind and photovoltaic applications)
- Wireless power transfer
- Power electronics for railways and space applications (design, optimization, control)
- Modeling of electromagnetic devices using numerical methods
Our unit is also associated with the following UMONS research institutes :
