Welcome to the Transportation Electrification Lab (T.E.L) at the Electrical Engineering Department of IIT Jodhpur, established in 2023 by Dr. Kunwar Aditya. T.E.L's primary mission is to foster cutting-edge research in the field of power electronics and drive systems with direct applications in the automotive industry.
Within T.E.L, students will embark on an educational journey that goes beyond textbooks and theories. Graduates of our lab will acquire invaluable hands-on experience in SPICE simulation, converter design, PCB layout, and hardware testing. Our aim is to equip them with the practical skills needed to drive innovation in the realm of transportation electrification. We focus on practical product development rather than mere publication for archival purposes.
We also recognize the government's emphasis on 'Make in India' and are committed to leveraging our expertise to contribute meaningfully towards this national endeavor.
