It has long been the opinion of this columnist that power electronics (PE) and energy storage (ES) are not just complementary, but should always be thought of as two peas
From NVIDIA’s 800 V vision for the future, to Vertiv’s Director of Engineering Brian Heber’s Plenary talk “HVDC Distribution For Future AI Data Centers” [1], to the unending news reports
In the global north, globalization of science and accelerating growth of exponential technologies (nano-scale materials, VLSI, AI, and additive manufacturing) are changing every aspect of societybut access to energy is
The rapid evolution of artificial intelligence (AI) workloads has fundamentally transformed the landscape of data center power infrastructure [1], [2]. Contemporary AI training clusters for Large Language Models (LLMs), such
The electrification of critical infrastructure demands power electronics systems with unprecedented resilience, reliability, and self-healing capabilities. Drawing inspiration from biological systems such as the human body’s self-repair mechanisms and collective
Smart actuators have become central to advancing humanoid robots, bringing essential features such as efficiency, precision, compactness, compliance, and intrinsic safety. Achieving human-like movements requires actuators that meet these criteria
Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Renewable Energies (RE) are two fields that have a growing intersection. Because of their capability of handling nonlinear and complex data structures, AI technologies are increasingly
Interest in artificial intelligence (AI) within the power electronics community has surged in recent years. A search across the IEEE Power Electronics Society (PELS) portfolio, including IEEE Journal of Emerging
Electrification of industry and new loads, such as AI datacenters, is accelerating at an unprecedented pace, resulting in a dramatic and rapid 2× –3× increase in electricity demand. Utilities and
As part of its commitment to the technical community, the IEEE Power Electronics Society (PELS) Students and Young Professionals Committee successfully hosted the third IEEE PELS Students and Young Professionals
