New Belgian ECPE Competence Centre

We are pleased to announce that the Chair in Energy Electronics at Electrical Power Engineering Unit (EPEU) of UMONS has recently joined the ECPE European Center for Power Electronics network as a Competence Centre.

The ECPE was founded in 2003 on the initiative of leading power electronics industries as an industry-driven research network. Its mission is to promote education, innovation, science, research, and technology transfer in the field of power electronics across Europe. Today, the network has grown to include over 230 members (123 Industrial Members and 118 Competence Centers).

The Chair at UMONS, supported by Contribute for Wallonia— an initiative of S3 Wallonia | Smart Specialisation Strategy— is now one of only two ECPE Competence Centres in Belgium and the sole ECPE Competence Centres in Wallonia.

We look forward to collaborating with ECPE members across our three pillars of activity in the field of Power Electronics

• Research & Innovation,

• Education & Training,

• Event & Visibility.
