1. Modulation, efficiency and lifetime of two-level and multilevel converters for a hydropower application
Abstract : Along with the integration of the renewable energy in the electrical grid, the pumped-storage hydropower has gained more and more attention due to its fast response and energy storage ability. To have a higher overall efficiency and more flexibility of the system, variable speed is preferred in the operation of the pumped-storage hydropower applications. READ MORE

2. A new Auxiliary Converter Topology with SiC Components for Railway Applications
Abstract : Smaller size and lower weight are always the targets of the power electronic product development. This work introduces two new topologies of auxiliary converters which have the feature of fewer components and fewer number of energy conversion stages comparing with the conventional auxiliary converter used in railway applications.

3. Multilevel Power Converters with Smart Control for Wave Energy Conversion
Abstract : The main focus of this thesis is on the power electronic converter system challenges associated with the grid integration of variable-renewable-energy (VRE) sources like wave, marine current, tidal, wind, solar etc. Wave energy conversion with grid integration is used as the key reference, considering its high energy potential to support the future clean energy requirements and due the availability of a test facility at Uppsala University.

4. Wireless Control of Modular Multilevel Converter Submodules
Abstract : The modular multilevel converter (MMC) has extensively been used in high-voltage, high-power applications such as high-voltage dc transmission systems and flexible alternating current transmission systems. The control of MMC submodules is conventionally realized using wired communication systems. READ MORE
