The Power Electronic Conversion Technology Platform (PECTA) is one of four Platforms (EDNA, EMSA, SSLC and PECTA) within the IEA 4E TCP (Technology Collaboration Program of Energy Efficient End-Use Equipment) and was launched in March 2019.
The overall goal of PECTA includes collecting and analysing information about new wide band gap (WBG) based power electronic devices, coordinating internationally acceptable approaches that promote WBG-based power electronics and developing greater understanding and action amongst governments and policy makers.
The latest policy brief from PECTA, ‘Circular Economy – Compatible Power Electronics and New Application Areas’ has been published and is available for download here.
The latest policy brief from PECTA, ‘The Energy Saving Potential of Wide Band Gap Technology in selected appliances’ has been published and is available for download here.
PECTA proudly served as an institutional partner at the highly anticipated EPE 2023 Conference. This prestigious collaboration highlighted PECTA’s commitment to advancing technological innovation and fostering knowledge exchange on a global scale.
This Policy Brief provides considerations around circular economy-compatible power electronics and new application areas. It summarises insights gained from recently published work supported by the 4E PECTA platform.
The Power Electronic Conversion Technology Platform (PECTA) Application Readiness Map for Wide Bandgap (WBG) Semiconductors describes their expected market position through 2036. It is based on
This Policy Brief highlights the importance of wide bandgap power semiconductors in industrial variable speed drives and introduces the Research Roadmap developed by EMSA in cooperation with PECTA. The Research Roadmap aims to facilitate the adoption of this new technology by addressing key challenges with dedicated research topics over the course of the next few years.
Fifteen countries from the Asia-Pacific, Europe and North America have joined together under the forum of 4E to share information and transfer experience in order to support good policy development in the field of energy efficient appliances and equipment.
