The Tranche 1 research theme programmes ran from 2013 to 2017 and wassupported by £8 million of EPSRC funding. The key challenges addressed in this phase were:
- increased efficiency
- increased power density
- increased robustness
- lower electromagnetic interference
- higher levels of integration, and
- lower costs
Ten core university partners were directly involved in this phase of the Centre’s research.
The four themes were:
Components | Converters |
Devices | Drives |
