Specific skills in the MRE field

In the field of MRE, the focus is on the modeling, optimization and control of conversion chains or wind farms or tidal farms based on innovative electrotechnical structures (synchronous machines with double salience, double air gap or multiphase machine …). Studies range from the resource (wind, marine currents, etc.) to grid integration (energy quality), including robust and fault-tolerant AC / DC converters and control laws. adapted MPPT strategies.

Test facilities applicable to MRE

Test benches based on synchronous machine pentaphase (tidal application).

DSPMG slow machine-based test bench (2kW-50tr.min-1 double-synchronous permanent magnet synchronous machine)

GSAP-based test bench (synchronous generator with permanent magnets of 500 W)
