Abstract

The goal of the IEA 4E Electric Motor Systems Platform (EMSA) is to improve energy efficiency and reduce greenhouse gas emissions worldwide by promoting highly efficient electric motor systems in member countries, industrialized, emerging and developing countries. Switzerland is leading two key tasks: “International Standards” and “Testing”. The “International Standards” task remains crucial to help shape future energy efficiency standards for electric motor driven systems. Switzerland will continue to actively participate in the relevant IEC working groups. In the “Testing” task, Switzerland retains its leading role in the area of Wide Bandgap (WBG) Industrial Variable Speed Drive Systems. The focus is on evaluating the effects of silicon carbide inverters on industrial motors in collaboration with leading SiC semiconductor manufacturers and research institutes. The results will be incorporated into the “White Book on WBG Semiconductor-Based Industrial Variable Speed Drives”, which is being prepared jointly with the IEA 4E Power Electronic Conversion Technology Platform (PECTA).
