FG LE participates in ECCE Europe 2025 in Birmingham

Power Electronics Department travels to England with battery storage in tow

Wie ein Klassentreffen: Aktuelle und ehemalige Kollegen des IAL aus Hannover (von links: Prof. Dr. Marco Jung (Fraunhofer IEE, Kassel), Jonas Kipp (Student am IAL, Hannover), Prof. Dr.-Ing. Jakub Kucka (Universität Paderborn), M.Sc. Tobias Schütte (FG LE Uni Kassel), Prof. Dr.-Ing. Jens Friebe (FG LE Uni Kassel), Prof. Dr.-Ing. Axel Mertens (IAL, Leibniz Universität Hannover))
Präsentationsaufbau des Batteriespeichersystems u.a. mit Oszilloskop, Anzeige-Webinterface und Kaffeemaschine als Demonstrationslast
Vorbereitung der Posterpräsentation (Mahmoud Saeidi)

This year, the Power Electronics (LE) team had something very special in store for the ECCE Europe power electronics conference: an innovative battery storage system based on a new power electronics platform at the single-cell level. The additional highlight was that the system was installed in a car trailer and equipped with the appropriate electrical components so that it could be used as a mobile power supply for AC and DC applications. In addition to the four poster presentations (see Figure 1) on current research topics, technologies could also be demonstrated in a real-life setting. Due to the technical design of most small coffee machines (keyword: heating element), it was possible to combine the technical and the enjoyable.

This year's conference venue in Birmingham, England, turned the journey to the conference with the test system into a bit of an adventure, covering around 1,500 kilometers by car and approximately 720 kilometers across the North Sea by car ferry from Rotterdam to Kingston Upon Hull and back. It was also, as we now know, a successful transport test for the innovative concept.

An important part of the conferences is the exchange with colleagues and experts from all over the world. But of course also with the community back home, who know each other from their joint work in Hanover and are now working in Kassel, Paderborn, and Hanover.
