RESEARCH PROJECTS
Energy Storage System based on Modular Multilevel Converters
From 2019 and ongoing
Mr. Davalos has been working in low voltage multi-modular converters for supercapacitors. He was researching and developing an efficient low-voltage cell that can be connected in series or in parallel in order to create an energy storage system for AC grids or DC grids. The module is totally independent, it includes the storage device, the balancing system and the power conversion.
