Staff and students from CURENT received multiple awards at the 2024 IEEE Energy Conversion and Congress Expo (ECCE).
Dan Wilson and Kevin Bai initiated two very different and highly successful electrical engineering programs for underserved high school students this year.
Kevin Bai is spearheading efforts to develop a compact drive inverter and motor for EVs that would reduce the size and cost of electric drive trains.
The University of Tennessee has been awarded a $2.8 million grant from the U.S. Department of Energy to help modernize the nation’s power grid. UT’s team will be developing light-triggered semiconductor switch modules.
Power electronics faculty and students from the CURENT attended the IEEE Energy Conversion Congress and Expo (ECCE).
EECS faculty researchers look for a way to repurpose older, but still useful, EV batteries to bolster the power grid.
Professor Kevin Bai and his research team are working with Ford Motor Company to develop an ultra-fast electric behicle charger.
Kevin Bai, professor of electrical engineering and member of CURENT, was selected to chair the 2021 IEEE International Future Energy Challenge.
