• Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC/EMI) of power electronic converters.
• High-frequency modeling and identification of parasitic phenomena.
• Experimental characterization and EMC instrumentation.
• Power converters based on Wide Band Gap (WBG) technologies (SiC and GaN).
• Electro-thermal optimization and efficiency enhancement.
• Energy storage systems and Home Energy Management Systems (HEMS).

Current Research Projects

• FLEX'SYS : Flexible electrical systems and renewable energy storage.

Industrial Collaborations
