I am extending my area of expertise in power electronics converters and energy storage devices in this job. The focus of my job is to develop power electronics converters for application in renewables and energy storage devices. The converters are to be designed using wide-bandgap devices focussed on GaN devices.

Before joining Fraunhofer IEE, my core areas of professional expertise have been in research and development, innovation and academia. I have extensively worked in designing, prototyping, and controlling power electronics converters for EV drivetrain and chargers during my PhD (thesis supervisor Prof Dr.-Ing. Praveen Kumar.). I have also gained expertise in designing intelligent controllers for V2G systems, Li-ion battery electrochemical modelling- its simulation and causes of degradation, and charging techniques to meet the target of fast charge along with reduced battery degradation.
