Energy and Power Systems Research Centre
Overview
The Energy and Power Systems Research Centre, or EPSRC, focuses on a number of different aspects of efficient and sustainable energy and power systems. We specialise in green energy, smart grids, electric transportation, electric machines and power conversion. We also focus on renewable energy systems like solar power, wind power and biomass energy, micro grids like AC micro grid, DC micro grid, smart metering and intelligent controllers and power systems for electric vehicles like EV charging stations and dynamic wireless charging systems. The EPSRC is also working on static and rotating machines, including transformers, induction motors, brushless DC motors, switched reluctance motors and linear induction motors. We study other aspects like the double sided linear SRM, thermal and electromagnetic analysis on induction motors, health monitoring of EV, axial flux linear permanent magnetic machines, BLDC and synchronous motors in EV as well. We are also working on power converter topologies and intelligent control techniques.
