Postdoctoral Researcher in Microgrids for AI Data Centers

Popis:

Responsibilities The rapid growth of artificial intelligence (AI) is driving unprecedented demand for large-scale AI data centers, creating new challenges for power supply, energy efficiency, resilience, and grid integration. Meanwhile, arctic and subarctic regions are becoming attractive locations for AI data centers due to their naturally cold climate, which significantly reduces cooling needs. These trends require next-generation microgrid and power electronics technologies to ensure reliable and sustainable operation. This project focuses on the design, modeling, control, and management of microgrids for AI data centers. The project is funded by the Swedish Energy Agency in close collaboration with Arjeplogs Municipality, providing a unique arctic real-world testing environment. Qualifications Requirements Completed doctoral degree or foreign degree deemed equivalent to a doctoral degree. This eligibility requirement must be fulfilled by the time the employment decision is made. Strong research expertise in at least one of the following areas: microgrids, power systems, or power electronics Strong knowledge of power electronics or solid programming skills Meritorious At the final application deadline, no more than three years since obtaining a doctoral degree or a foreign degree deemed equivalent to a doctoral degree. Experience with AI data center power systems, microgrids, solid-state transformers, DC/DC converters, inverters, etc. Experience with modeling and stability analysis Experience in hardware development or real-time simulation. Awareness of diversity and equal treatment issues with a particular focus on gender equality. We will place great emphasis on personal qualities.
