主講人：彭方正 美國工程院院士

題目：我的研究生涯與電網復興

主講人簡介：

彭方正教授，美國工程院院士，IEEE會士，美國國家發明家科學院院士，曾就職于美國橡樹嶺國家實驗室，擔任電力電子研發中心首席科學家，先后任教于東京工業大學、密歇根州立大學、佛羅里達州立大學，現任匹茲堡大學講座主任教授、能網（智能電網）研究所所長。

彭方正教授主要從事大功率電力電子及其應用、系統容錯、自愈和彈性等研究，他開創性地提出有源/虛擬電阻概念，率先開展了多電平變換器與柔性交流輸電系統研究，發明了基于三角形連接模塊化多電平變換器的靜態同步補償器（Delta-connected MMC STATCOM）。他持有發明專利30余項，發表學術論文共400余篇（包括Nature Scientific Reposts 2篇和SCI 300多篇），論文總引用數達7萬多次。他于2012年榮膺密歇根州立大學董事會授予的大學杰出教授稱號，在美國國會第118次會議上接受表彰。在斯坦福大學的全世界頂尖科學家排名榜上名列前茅、在電氣電子和能源等綜合領域中排全世界第4名。先后獲得IEEE Newell Award（電力電子領域最高獎），IEEE Kliman Inventor Award，IEEE IAS Outstanding Achievement Award，幾十次優秀論文獎等。

Brief Introduction of Professor Peng Fangzheng

Professor Peng Fangzheng, Member of the U.S. National Academy of Engineering, IEEE Fellow, and Fellow Member of the U.S. National Academy of Inventors, formerly served as Chief Scientist at the Power Electronics R&D Center of Oak Ridge National Laboratory and at the Technical Research Institute of Toyo Electric Manufacturing Corporation. He has held faculty positions at Tokyo Institute of Technology, Michigan State University, and Florida State University. Currently, he is the Chair Professor and Director of the Energy Grid (Smart Grid) Research Institute at the University of Pittsburgh.

Professor Peng's research primarily focuses on high-power electronics and its applications, including high-power motor drives and propulsion, grid control and intelligence, and in-depth studies on system fault tolerance, self-healing, and resilience. He pioneered the concept of active/virtual resistance and was among the first to conduct research on multilevel converters and flexible AC transmission systems. He invented the Delta-connected Modular Multilevel Converter (MMC) Static Synchronous Compensator (STATCOM) and proposed the Impedance Source (Z-Source) concept, inventing Z-Source control technology. He holds more than 30 patents and has published over 400 academic papers (including 2 in Nature Scientific Reports and over 300 SCI-indexed papers), with a total citation count exceeding 70,000 and an H-index of 106. In 2012, he was honored with the prestigious University Distinguished Professor title by the Michigan State University Board of Trustees and was inducted into the Hall of Fame during the 118th U.S. Congress. He ranks among the top scientists globally in Stanford University's rankings and is ranked 4th worldwide in the comprehensive fields of electrical, electronics, and energy. He has received numerous awards, including the IEEE Newell Award (the highest honor in power electronics field), the IEEE Kliman Inventor Award, the IEEE IAS Outstanding Achievement Award, and dozens of excellent paper prize awards.
