Power Conversion & Control
Ultimately MRE devices are meant to produce electricity at an affordable cost. This means that power conversion and control subsystems are fundamental parts of a MRE device. Within this wide field, PRIMaRE partners have developed expertise on the application and development of the following research areas:
- Control strategies
- Cost of energy and extremes
- Electrical control systems
- Hydraulic power transmission
- Power Take Off (PTO)
