Enertronics is to make energy systems intelligent, using electronic technologies of power, control and communications, combined with the analysis and design of electrical and energy systems.
The scope of enertronics apply to the area of renewable energy, smart grids, smart city and electric mobility.
CIT UPC provides companies and institutions our knowledge and experience in the field of enertronics:
- Analysis of energy consumption patterns for prognosis, diagnosis and optimization.
- Optimization of energy consumption in buildings and industrial plants.
- Diagnostic and monitoring techniques of electromechanical systems.
- Intelligent control of the power grid.
- Design and development of electric chargers and V2G/V2H systems.
- Design of electrical machines as its monitoring and control.
- Design of electric motors for electric and hybrid vehicles to plug network.
- Design of small power generation systems.
- Management of energy storage systems.
- Electronic power applied to the emulation of computers.
- High voltage systems for sustainable transportation energy.
RELATED PROJECTS
- A multidisciplinary team at the Universitat Politècnica de Catalunya - BarcelonaTech (UPC) is working on the European project AI - Enhanced Fibre -Wireless Optical 6G Network in Support for Connected Mobility (6G-EWOC) to develop technologies and a 6G optical network that will combine artificial intelligence with 6G technologies, remote sensing systems and optical communication (wireless and by optical fibre). The result will be a network that will enable autonomous and human-driven vehicles to circulate safely, avoiding accidents in zones that have a lot of traffic or are very busy.
- The technology of the CP4C project, based on hydrogels treated with plasma gas, is being developed by the team of researchers at the PlasmaMedLab and the Biomaterials, Biomechanics and Tissue Engineering Group (BBT) of CREB at the UPC. CP4C is one of the University projects that has obtained a grant from Barcelona Deep Tech Node to accelerate its launch on the market.
- CD6 researchers at the UPC participate in a project to design and construct a proof of concept of a system that has laser technology and sensors to detect and map the underwater environment.
- A multidisciplinary team whose participants include the Microbiology Service of the Vall d’Hebrón University Hospital, the Microbiology research group of the Vall d’Hebron Research Institute (VHIR), the Computational Biology and Complex Systems Group (BIOCOM-SC UPC), the Image and Video Processing Group (GPI) and the Database Technologies and Information Management Group (DTMI) at the Universitat Politècnica de Catalunya - BarcelonaTech (UPC), and Fundación Probitas, have presented a new diagnostic method for malaria based on artificial intelligence.
