Optimal Control of Modular Multilevel Power Electronic Converter Systems for Electrical Distribution Networks

该项目将提高国家使用多电平电力电子转换器系统的能力，以帮助运行和维护更有效的配电网络。该项目的成果还将有助于在配电系统中实施可再生能源和分布式能源发电系统，从而有助于减少温室气体排放。此外，预计将要调查的控制战略可能导致随后与当地工业的商业发展。最后，该项目将促进和发展莫纳什大学与世界各地该领域领先的国际研究团体之间在电力电子领域的国际联系。

This project will improve the national capability to use multilevel power electronic converter systems to help operate and maintain more efficient electrical distribution networks. The outcomes of the project will also contribute to the implementation into electrical distribution systems of renewable and distributed energy generation systems, and hence will help to reduce greenhouse gas emissions. In addition, it is anticipated that the control strategies to be investigated could lead to subsequent commercial developments with local industries. Finally, the project will foster and develop international links in power electronics between Monash University, and leading-edge international research groups in the area around the world.
