X-POWER – Power Electronics Reliability Test Facilities

X-POWER is a cooperation between the major Danish universities to establish a Danish research infrastructure for reliability testing of power electronics components and systems incl. data collection. The research infrastructure is open on equal terms to project partners, academic, and commercial users who would like to exploit the facilities and/or the competences, and users can apply for access to the infrastructure facilities.

The aim of X-POWER is to establish a novel world class reliability design and test center for power electronic components and systems. X-POWER will support fundamental research in Danish universities on reliability power electronics and facilitate robustness validation of industry products with reduced time-to-market and life-cycle costs. X-POWER will give Danish universities and industry a unique chance to be in the lead in terms of research in power electronics and its applications. In terms of reliability and robustness, the industry will get the latest knowledge in the field and X-POWER will offer test capacity for new developed products, where it is possible both to study in details failure mechanism of developed products, but also be able to test the real mission profile. X-POWER will enable the Parties to contribute to and solve many scientific challenges in the area of research in a systematic way.
