Emerging Applications Need Energy-Saving Design Skills Most

Focus:

With energy efficiency now a pressing concern for society, the role of the power electronics engineer in designing efficient power supplies and power systems takes on added importance. Within certain industries, the power electronics engineer’s energy-saving skills are especially valued. To gauge where power electronics engineers may see the greatest demand for their design skills as a result of energy efficiency requirements, I asked several executives in the power supply and power semiconductor industries to assess which applications or industries have the greatest demands for energy efficiency and where these demands translate into the most, potentially lucrative opportunities for power electronics engineers. Here are some of their responses.
