Meta-parameterisation of power semiconductor devices for studies of efficiency and power density in high power converters. I: Power Electronics and Applications (EPE'16 ECCE Europe), 2016 18th European Conference. IEEE conference proceedings 2016 10.1109/EPE.2016.7695625Abstract
This paper presents a meta-parameterised approach for evaluation of power switch modules (PSMs) in high power converters (HPCs). General models and parameters for evaluation of power losses and volume of PSMs are presented. Then, meta-parameterisation is performed for the High Power Semiconductor Devices (HPSDs) that are commonly used in HPCs, considering two types of package, press-pack and module type, and including IGBT, IGCT and IEGT chip technologies. A comparative analysis based on current capability and its dependency with the frequency in voltage source converters is introduced for the considered HPSD technologies. Press-pack IGBT technology shows the higher current capability and power dissipation performance, so it can be good choice for increase the operative frequency in HPCs.

Power purchase agreement vs. investment in power generation: Analysing the trade-offs for a large industrial power consumer considering wind power in the Norwegian market
Christensen, Mathilde Knobel; Instefjord, Kari Renslo; Tonhaugen, Trine Marie (Master thesis, 2019)De siste årene har man observert to tydelige utviklingstrekk innenfor norsk vindkraft. Det første er at vindkraftprosjekter begynner å bli lønnsomme uten statlige subsidier. Nummer to er den økte bruken av såkalte ... -

Offshore Wind Power in the North Sea: Grid Integration of 1000 MW Offshore Wind Power into the Norwegian Power System
Sommerfelt, Knut Magnus (Master thesis, 2008)Norway has great potential for offshore wind power, but the depths just outside the coast probably make floating wind turbines necessary. In order to use today s technology for offshore wind turbines with foundations on ...
