In order to achieve carbon neutrality by 2050, decarbonization of the power sector through the large-scale introduction of
renewable energy such as wind and solar power generation is a major prerequisite, and furthermore, the "electrification" of
final energy is an unavoidable important issue. As a result, there is an increasing demand for energy-saving, stable and highly
efficient power supply systems. In this course, you will deepen your understanding of analysis and design methods for power
supply systems based on power electronics technology, and acquire the practical skills to apply them to a variety of applications.
With a focus on power electronics, students will learn how to understand the components of power supply systems and apply
them to a variety of applications, with the aim of utilizing energy more effectively and realizing new functions. Students
will also learn how to communicate their understanding to others in an easily understandable way.
- Understand the overall structure of power electronics and be able to explain the components of power supply systems (Class Schedule 1-6)
- Understand application examples of power supply systems and be able to explain recent trends (Class Schedule 7-13)
- Be able to investigate the latest research on power supply systems, understand the content, and accurately communicate and discuss it with others (Class Schedule 14)

[Evaluation method] Specific assignments related to achievement goals 1 to 3 will be given and evaluated. Reports for each
class will be evaluated on whether they contain information related to the lecture content. In addition, throughout the lectures,
presentations and discussions of the results of research into the latest research on topics that interest each student will
be evaluated.
Reports (12 times): 60%, presentation: 20%, Q&A: 20%, total score of 60 or more out of 100 will be considered a pass.
[Evaluation criteria] For reports for each class, 60 points will be awarded if they contain information related to the lecture content, and additional points will be awarded if they are written in detail. For the final presentation, 60 points will be awarded if the student is able to explain the researched papers etc. using slides and be able to discuss the content with others.
