Summer travel bursaries
Opportunities to travel to Newcastle and Edinburgh
N-ZEEE are delighted to offer travel bursaries to support attendance at two summer events: 2 June 2026, Newcastle and 6 July 2026, Edinburgh. Read on…
From Innovation to Fabrication and back again… Electrical Machines for a Circular Economy
This workshop brings together researchers, engineers, and industry leaders to explore and discuss the full lifecycle of electrical machines from innovation and advanced fabrication to reuse, refurbishment, and redesign all within the framework of a circular economy. It highlights emerging materials, novel machine topologies, sustainable manufacturing processes, and design-for-disassembly approaches that reduce environmental impact while maintaining high performance and reliability.
Our confirmed industrial speakers include motor manufacturers from the automotive and renewable sector, plus representatives from within the supply chain and automated assembly. From Academia we have leading researchers in electrical machine design, innovative manufacture, life cycle analysis and circular electronics.
Travel bursaries of up to £700 are available. Register for the workshop and apply for a travel bursary.
Power Electronic & Electrical Machine Design for High-Power & Renewable Applications
The Centre for Power Electronics and the EPSRC Net-Zero Enabling Electrical Engineering (N-ZEEE) Network+, are organising a full-day Tutorial on Power Electronics & Electrical Machine Design for High-Power & Renewable Applications on the day before the CPE 2026 Conference on 7-8 July 2026.
This free full day tutorial will cover both introductory and advanced topics in the design of power electronics. The focus will be on Megawatt scale power-electronics and electrical generator for renewable applications such as solar, wind, tidal and wave. Topics in power-electronics will include advanced converter and busbar design using wide bandgap power devices, dV/dt management and gate-driving. Topics in electrical machines will also include design of low-speed high-torque generator systems, considerations for reductions in rare earth magnet usage and introduction to superconducting electrical machine design.
Travel bursaries of up to £700 are available for Early Career Academics. Register for the workshop and apply for a travel bursary.
