The energy sector is expanding rapidly in spite of the current economic crisis. Power electronics
and its applications play a very important role in the emerging energy sector. Recently, many new application
frontiers have been opened for power Electronics: from hybrid electric vehicles to all electric ship propulsion,
from alternative energy interface to high voltage high power utility applications.
