Abstract

Power Electronics is a wonder land that is playing a crucial role in the energy sector by enabling efficiency improvements, facilitating a renewable energy economy while also matching up with an energy storage revolution.

The Power Electronics area has been advancing considerably in the last fifty years but between the push from both the public and the private sectors to reach respective emission reduction targets wrapped together with a global pandemic, investment in this area in recent years has been unprecedented.

Delta Electronics is a globally recognized leader in power electronics, automation, and thermal management solutions. With a rich history dating back to 1971, Delta is known for its commitment to innovation, sustainability, and quality across a diverse range of industries. Delta Electronics has been in Australia since the late 1990’s originally with a focus on Telecom power systems but has expanded rapidly in more recent years in Data centres, Industrial Automation and Electrical Infrastructure including Electric Vehicle charges.

As an engineer today you have an opportunity to play a vital role in addressing tomorrow’s energy challenges while advancing a more sustainable and efficient energy world. As an employed there are unfortunately not enough of you with the result being that it is an exciting time to be an engineer!
