THE KEY OBJECTIVE OF THIS PROJECT IS TO DEVELOP A COMPREHENSIVE, SCALABLE, MODULAR, AND SELF-COORDINATED POWER CONVERTER FRAMEWORK FOR ADVANCING MARINE RENEWABLE ENERGY (MRE) SOURCES. BY LEVERAGING BOTH SOFTWARE AND HARDWARE INNOVATIONS AND COUNTING ON ADVANCEMENT IN POWER ELECTRONICS, CONTROL ALGORITHMS, AND DIGITAL TWIN TECHNOLOGIES, THE PROJECT SEEKS TO ENHANCE THE PERFORMANCE, RELIABILITY, AND ADAPTABILITY OF MRE SYSTEMS. THROUGH SIMULATIONS, HARDWARE-IN-THE-LOOP (HIL) TESTING, AND IN-SITU EVALUATIONS, THE PROJECT SEEKS TO VALIDATE AND IMPROVE MRE SYSTEMS' EFFICIENCY, GRID INTEGRATION, AND OPERATIONAL COST REDUCTION. THIS PROGRESS SUPPORTS ADVANCING AND ADOPTING RENEWABLE ENERGY IN MARINE ENVIRONMENTS, PROMOTING CLEAN AND SUSTAINABLE ENERGY SOLUTIONS.
