The Power Electronics Group of the University of Padova performs state-of-art research in several areas of industrial and consumer power electronics. It has been active since the early 80’s in development of topologies and control strategies for energy conversion.

The Power Electronics Group operates two laboratories, in Padova and in Vicenza. The first, at the Department of Information Engineering (DEI) in Padova, focuses on advanced research in power electronic systems, including energy conversion, smart grids, and electric mobility. It provides a state-of-the-art environment for students and researchers to collaborate on cutting-edge projects. The second, at the Department of Management and Engineering (DTG) in Vicenza, emphasizes applied research in partnership with local industries. Specializing in high-performance power converters and renewable energy systems, this lab directly contributes to industrial advancements.
