ECPE Objectives & Mission

• Precompetitive Joint Research in Power Electronic Systems‐ ECPE Projects with focus on automotive & industrial power electronic systems as 

well as renewable energies and electronic power grids

‐ EC or national funded research projects with partners from the Network  

• Expert Workshops & Advanced Training‐ ECPE Workshops, Tutorials and practical lab courses for engineers in industry‐ ECPE online course ´Power Electronics´

• Public Relations & Lobbying for Power ElectronicsHave “one strong voice” of power electronics industry to public & politics

ECPE MissionAs the Industry‐driven Power Electronics Research Network covering the value chain from the materials and components to the systems and applications   ECPE strengthens the cooperation between Power Electronics industry and universities & research centres on a European level.As the European Technology and Innovation Platform in power electronics we are driving precompetitive joint research and we set up research & technology roadmaps for a strategic research agenda in Europe with future research directions according to the demands of European power electronics industry. With one strong voice of the power electronics community to the public and to politics we create awareness for the role and importance of power electronics regarding the megatrends in society  e.g. energy efficiency, use of renewable energies, electronic power grids and e‐mobility.

ECPE History and Motivation

Situation in 2002/2003 in Europe:• Power Electronics (PE) was not attractive

(but micro‐/nanoelectronics and ICT)‐ low number of students in PE‐ decreasing number of PE university chairs

• no long‐term research programmes and no roadmaps

• no joint technology platform for industry & academia

• no organised expert workshops & trainings in PE

• no awareness for the key role of PE regarding energyefficiency and use of renewables

ECPE founded as Industry Initiative to• strengthen the cooperation between PE Industry 

and Universities on a European level

• jointly develop the future of PE

• have a strong voice speaking for PE

Research and Technology Roadmaps are an important strategic tool to identify and guide a mainstream for medium to long term research. The ´Power Electronics 2025´ Roadmaps will be the key element of the ECPE Strategic Research Agenda. 

Objectives: • Provide input and industrial guidance to research 

programmes on European and on national level• ECPE Member companies will reflect their own 

company roadmap vs. the ECPE roadmaps• ECPE Competence Centre will use the roadmaps when 

they define new research directions
