Power Electronics for Industrial Applications and Renewable Energy Poster Competition 2014

The Idea
The poster competition: Is focuses on the application of power electronics in the industry and in renewable energy sources and related applications. Is planned to further explore the viability of the power electronic technologies that are used in all clean energy applications. Is aimed at bringing the academia and technocrats in one platform and to discuss the possible solutions of using power electronic converters for the world and Malaysian environment.

Power electronic converters are expected to play a major role in the conversion of alternative energy sources and interfacing them with the power grid or any stand alone loads. Therefore, new and highly efficient power electronic technologies in conjunction with appropriate control strategies are still needed to reduce massive waste of energy and to improve the grid power quality. Power electronics have found widespread applications in renewable energy and in industries. They are used in the oil and gas and petrochemical industry, in the cement industry, in water pumping stations, in traction applications, utility systems, and many other areas. Hence, the installation of properly controlled high power drives can significantly reduce energy losses, the total drive costs, and improve power quality. Photovoltaic, thermal solar, and Fuel Cells are important energy sources for Malaysia. Wind power is an auxiliary energy source that could be used to compensate for the absence of PV power. Having a high potential of solar energy and a reasonable amount of wind, Malaysia should invest in developing and utilizing green solar and wind energy renewable power plants. By integrating these renewable energy sources with proper electric energy storage, a reliable and efficient hybrid renewable electric power plant can be built.
