Abstract
Flagship advanced solutions for Condition and Health monitoring In Power electronics Description :
The project is implemented by a competitive consortium of 11 partners, from 8 different countries (Spain, Norway, France, United Kingdom, Germany, Greece, Cyprus and Switzerland), with a strong research group collaborating with key stakeholders that include industrial players such as manufacturers, research-based companies and business development firms. It will validate wide band-gap (WBG) and ultra wide band-gap (UWBG) semiconductor technologies and their integration into more compact and cost-effective power modules, combining these developments with upgraded condition and health monitoring of power electronic components.

FLAGCHIP’s approaches will be demonstrated through AC/DC and DC/DC applications at two pilot sites in France (DC/DC MVDC Converter) and Norway (AC/DC Offshore Wind Turbine and Substation Converter architecture).

As a result, the project will enhance the efficiency of Power Electronics components, facilitating the creation of a new generation of inverters, converters, and other power equipment for the energy sector.
