Title of Keynote: Design for reliability in power electronic systems

Abstract: In recent years, the automotive and aerospace industries have brought stringent reliability constraints on power electronic converters because of safety requirements. Today customers of many power electronic

products expect up to 20 years of lifetime and they also want to have a “failure free period” and all with focus on

the financials. The renewable energy sectors are also following the same trend, and more and more efforts are

being devoted to improving power electronic converters to account for reliability with cost-effective and

sustainable solutions. This presentation will introduce the recent progress in the reliability aspect study of power

electronic converters for power electronic applications with special focus on renewables. It will cover the

following contents: the motivations for highly reliable electric energy conversion in renewable energy systems;

the reliability requirements of typical renewable energy systems and its implication on the power electronic

converters; failure mechanisms and lifetime models of key power electronic components (e.g., power

semiconductor switches, capacitors, and fans); long-term mission profiles in Photovoltaic (PV) and wind power

applications and the component level stress analysis; reliability analysis methods, tools, and improvement

strategies of power electronic converters for renewable energy systems. A few case studies on PV and wind power

based renewable energy systems will also be discussed.

Title of Keynote: Wide Bandgap Devices - Key Features and Impacts to Power Electronics

Design

Abstract: Within only a few years on the market, silicon carbide (SiC) and gallium nitride (GaN) devices are already widely adopted in commercial products and are having shortage of supplies because even with their high

price/VA-rating, the performance boosted by these WBG devices makes their integrated system much more cost

effective as compared to the system using the well-optimized Si devices. On the horizon are gallium oxide (Ga2O3)

devices, which promises a higher bandgap and breakdown voltage level that will further revolutionize the high

power area. This presentation will first compare WBG device Figure of Merit (FOM) to see the trend of their

application areas and then focus on existing the power electronics design considerations with the WBG devices.

The use of WBG devices, especially GaN devices is now challenged by the circuit components such as gate drivers

and parasitic components. The main challenges with parasitic components are due to fast di/dt and dv/dt and

magnetics. For a conventional voltage source converter, the parasitic inductance in the phase leg can introduce a

large voltage spike that false-triggers the opposite side or other phase leg switches. This phenomenon is well

known even with the traditional silicon devices, but it is much more severe with GaN devices because of their low

threshold voltage. As these devices are pushed to mega-hertz switching for size reduction, more challenges will

arrive. Even the PCB parasitics are impacting the circuit behaviors. The PCB capacitance adding on to the junction

capacitance can result in long charging and discharging time for ZVS and also result in resonant frequency shift.

The PCB traces can dramatically increase the resonant inductance, which not only results in resonant frequency

shift, but also creates different resonant characteristic between individual phase-legs.

Another impact that is not obvious is the WBG related body diode voltage drop, which is typically 2 times with

SiC and as high as 5 times with GaN. Traditional inverter designs with Si IGBT normally add a dead time of more

than 2 µs in between upper and lower devices, and modify the PWM with dead-time compensation. During the

dead time, the current must flow through anti-paralleled diodes, which will result in a large conduction loss and

related heat with the use WBG devices. Synchronous rectification becomes essential now with dead time in 10’s

ns range, or two orders of magnitude reduction as compared to Si IGBT case. Such a big difference practically

makes the traditional dead-time compensation techniques obsolete.

Overall for our new generation power electronics engineers to deal with the use of WBG devices, there is a need

to learn a whole new set of knowledge base, skills, and design considerations.

Title of Keynote: HV SiC Power Devices Enabled High Power, Medium Voltage Power

Converters and Applications - MV Solid-State Transformers and High Speed Drives

Abstract: This presentation will outline the applications of High power and Medium Voltage power converters in all industry sectors - HVDC, FACTS and power quality, MV motor drives (including high-speed machines with

high fundamental frequency), MV DC grids, MV grid connected converters for renewables such as solar, wind,

etc., MV converters for mining applications, MV converters for traction applications, MV converters for industrial

applications such as steel mills, cement, and others; with present OEM solutions. The improvements required in

efficiency, power density, specific power and volumetric density metrics are forcing the industry to re-evaluate

present state of the art Silicon power devices based solutions in terms of the potential offered by recently

developed HV SiC power devices for HV and high power (MW class) power converters. The opportunities for

HV SiC devices for MV and high power converters and utility applications and the challenges to apply these HV

SiC devices successfully will be presented in-depth with SiC device voltage ranges from 1200V to 1700V

MOSFETs, and HV 10 kV - 15 kV MOSFETs, JBS diodes, and 15 kV SiC IGBTs. The potential and challenges

of the HV 10-15 kV devices to enable MV power conversion systems, including MV motor drives, FACTS and

MVDC grids will be explored with demonstrated application examples of SST (Solid State Transformer), MV

SiC power converters for grid tied solar applications, MV motor drives, shipboard power supply applications and

MV DC grids.

Title of Keynote: Resource Scheduling of a Local Energy Community

Abstract: The talk focuses on the operation of a local energy community. The community is a set of prosumers each of them may be equipped by local generation, energy storage systems and loads. The scheduling procedure

must distinguish between the power exchanged with the external grid and the power exchanges between the

prosumers in order to prioritize the use of local resources and self-consumption. The procedure should also provide

the price of the internal transactions. The performances of the approach are shown for various operating conditions

of a distribution network in which the direct transactions between prosumers are allowed.
