ENABLE
ENABLE the Grid: Establishing a centre of excellence for resonant coupling in electricity supply systems
As the energy transition progresses, green and sustainable electricity supplies are facing considerable pressure to innovate. This stems, on the one hand, from demands for increased energy efficiency, the miniaturisation of circuits and a significant reduction in costs. On the other hand, due to the tight supply situation on the global market, strategic aspects relating to the availability of (sub-)technologies are also coming into focus. Overcoming these challenges is crucial to fully exploiting the advantages of resonance coupling technology and making future power supply systems more efficient and sustainable.

Next-generation HVDC
Next-generation high-voltage power supplies with a voltage range up to 400 kV and a power range up to 100 kW
The aim of the project is to develop a new generation of high-voltage power supplies that are ideally suited for use in electron beam technology. The project centres on the development of an innovative modular system which, through the use of various hardware modules, can be configured to meet specific customer requirements.
Funding: ZIM programme of the Federal Ministry for Economic Affairs and Energy (BMWi)
