EPSRC funds launch of power electronics research centre University of Warwick Universities - Electronics Research

Funding of £18 million from the Engineering and Physical Sciences Research Council (EPSRC) has helped launch a Centre for Power Electronics. It will focus on the science and engineering behind low carbon technologies such as electric vehicles and renewable energy generation and distribution.

Ten universities who initially benefit from research funding for the new centre: Bristol, Cambridge, Greenwich, Imperial, Manchester, Newcastle, Nottingham, Sheffield, Strathclyde and Warwick.

The Centre will be funded as five linked grants, one funding the main hub activity, led by the University of Nottingham, and four funding high-level technical research themes: Devices, Components, Converters and Drives.

Details of the themes, according to EPSRC:

• Devices: Led by Professor Phil Mawby at the University of Warwick and involving the universities of Bristol, Cambridge, and Newcastle.
• Components: Led by Professor Philip Mellor at the University of Bristol and involving the universities of Greenwich, Nottingham, Manchester, Warwick and Imperial College London.
• Convertors: Led by Professor Andrew Forsyth at the University of Manchester and involving the universities of Strathclyde, Nottingham, Bristol and Imperial College London.
• Drives: Led by Professor Barrie Mecrow at the University of Newcastle and involving the universities of Manchester, Nottingham, Sheffield and Bristol.

“We have a leading power electronics industry in the UK, but we need to keep investing in research to ensure it remains globally competitive. This National Centre will bring together our excellent universities and businesses to ensure industry has access to the latest science and technology, as well as helping to maintain a supply of skilled people,” said Minister for Universities and Science, David Willetts.

“This £18 million investment in a six-year research initiative is part of EPSRC’s response to the Government’s 2011 BIS Strategy for Power Electronics in the UK,” said EPSRC’s Chief Executive, Professor David Delpy. “We will invest an initial tranche of £12 million with a further £6 million being released subject to a future review of progress. Power Electronics was also a priority area in our recent call for new Centres for Doctoral Training.”

The opening of the new Centre, states EPSRC, comes two months after the launch (pictured) of the PowerelectronicsUK Forum, a network backed by industry, academia and the government that aims to boost the number of people within the Power Electronics industry.
