The new technologies in the field of Advanced Power Electronics allow energy savings of more than 50 percent through the efficient management and conversion of electrical energy and the reduction of energy losses.
Currently, however, the market acceptance of these technologies is compounded by technical and economic barriers. For this, the partners of the project "Power Electronics for Energy Efficiency Green" (GreenPE) want to work: They want to strengthen the acceptance and use of a new generation of power electronics, which is characterised by new materials and technologies in the industry around the Baltic Sea. In particular, the technologies should be optimised for the decentralised and time flexible production and usage. Project activities are:
GreenPE brought together 17 partner organisations from seven Baltic Sea countries. The project was funded by the EU's Interreg Baltic Sea Region programme. It ran for a total of 36 months and had a total budget of over €3.1 million.
DSN was responsible for project and financial management as well as project communication.
