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
With economic development and population growth, the demand for electricity in countries around the world is increasing. Under the policy of nuclear power abolition, Taiwan has been developing power technology
Previous columns have evaluated fast-moving trends and technologies around the energy transition, reaching a conclusion in the last column that the incredible push to rapidly build many hundreds of new
In the global power system of 2050, we will need around four times the power generation capacity and the ability to transfer up to three times as much electrical energy
The world is on the brink of an energy revolution. Conventional energy systems are failing to meet the increasing global power demand and the rising significance of sustainability. Power electronics,
The growing integration of renewable energy sources has led to an increasing reliance on Inverter-Based Resources (IBRs), such as solar, wind, and battery energy storage system (BESS). Unlike traditional synchronous
The IEEE has recently published IEEE Std 2988-2024 IEEE Recommended Practice for Use and Functions of Virtual Synchronous Machines [1], developed by the IEEE Standard 2988 Virtual Synchronous Machines Working
This column was launched in the last issue of the IEEE Power Electronics Magazine to look holistically at the ongoing energy transition, driven by “exponential-technologies.” These are the areas where
As power systems transition toward renewable energy, inverter-based resources (IBRs) like wind and solar are replacing conventional synchronous generators (SGs) [1]. While this shift supports sustainability, it also introduces new
With the continuous electrification of various industries, the range of applications and ratings of high-power converters are expected to expand further. To reduce CO2 emissions, electrification is being promoted not
