Frede Blaabjerg was at ABB-Scandia, Randers, Denmark, from 1987 to 1988. From 1988 to 1992, he was a Ph.D. Student with Aalborg University, Aalborg, Denmark. He became an Assistant Professor in 1992, an Associate Professor in 1996, and a Full Professor of power electronics and drives in 1998. His current research interests include power electronics and its applications (such as in wind turbines), PV systems, reliability, harmonics, and adjustable speed drives. He has received 17 IEEE Prize Paper Awards, the IEEE PELS Distinguished Service Award in 2009, the EPE-PEMC Council Award in 2010, the IEEE William E. Newell Power Electronics Award 2014 and the Villum Kann Rasmussen Research Award 2014. Professor Blaabjerg was an Editor-in-Chief of the IEEE TRANSACTIONS ON POWER ELECTRONICS from 2006 to 2012. He has been Distinguished Lecturer for the IEEE Power Electronics Society from 2005 to 2007 and for the IEEE Industry Applications Society from 2010 to 2011. In 2014, he was nominated by Thomson Reuters to be one of the 250 most cited researchers in Engineering in the world. Professor Blaabjerg has published more than 300 journal publications in the field.
Dan M. Ionel is Professor of Electrical Engineering and the L. Stanley Pigman Chair in Power at University of Kentucky, Lexington, KY. He previously worked in industry, most recently as Chief Engineer for Regal Beloit Corp., and, before that, as the Chief Scientist for Vestas Wind Turbines. Concurrently with his industrial appointments, Professor Ionel also served as Visiting and Research Professor at University of Wisconsin and Marquette University in Milwaukee, WI. He contributed to technology developments with long lasting industrial impact, including US’ most successful range of PM motor drives and the world’s most powerful wind turbine. He published more than one hundred and fifty technical papers, including three winners of IEEE Best Paper Awards, and holds more than thirty patents, including a medal winner at the Geneva Invention Fair. An IEEE Fellow, he was the inaugural Chair of the IEEE Industry Applications Society Renewable and Sustainable Energy Conversion Systems Committee, Editor of IEEE Transactions on Sustainable Energy, and Technical Program Chair for IEEE ECCE 2015. He is the General Chair of the IEEE 2017 IEMDC Conference and the Editor-in-Chief of the Electric Power Components and Systems Journal.
"Renewable Energy Devices and Systems with Simulations in MATLAB
and ANSYS explains the operations behind different renewable
generation technologies in order to better prepare the reader for
practical applications. Multiple chapters are included on the
current state-of-the-art technology and possible technology
developments within the next 15 years. The book provides a
comprehensive overview of the current renewable energy technology
in terms of system configuration, power circuit usage, and control.
It contains two design examples for small wind turbine system and
PV power system, respectively, which are useful for real-life
installation, as well as many computer simulation models."
—MathWorks"It should be stressed that despite the overlapping
authorship of many chapters, no repetition can be found in the
book, and the presented material is well balanced. The volume can
be strongly recommended for a wide audience of both undergraduate
and graduate students, engineering educators, and practicing
engineers in the industry who are interested in the subject of
modern renewable energy systems."
