REnCon Revolutionizing Renewable Energy Conversion: GaN-Based ANPC Converter and Advanced Predictive Control for Enhanced Efficiency

Coordinator: KAUNO TECHNOLOGIJOS UNIVERSITETAS (LT)

The development of a cutting-edge Gallium Nitride (GaN) based Multilevel Active Neutral Point Clamped (ANPC) converter, integrated with a Model Predictive Controller (MPC), to significantly enhance the performance and efficiency of multi-energy systems. The focus of this study is to tackle critical challenges in power electronics by exploiting the superior characteristics of GaN devices, such as the unique advantages of GaN technology, which include its ability to operate at higher efficiencies compared to traditional silicon-based devices. This capability is particularly beneficial for reduc…

About Horizon Europe (2021–2027)

Horizon Europe is the EU's current research and innovation programme, covering 2021 to 2027 with a budget of roughly €95.5 billion. Its three pillars are Excellent Science (frontier research and mobility), Global Challenges and European Industrial Competitiveness (mission-driven collaborative projects in health, climate, digital, security and food) and Innovative Europe (the EIC and EIT). It also funds five EU Missions targeting cancer, climate adaptation, smart cities, oceans and soils.

The project runs over approximately 2 years from 2025-09-01 to 2027-08-31.
