Colloquium: Control Theory Applications in Energy Systems - TU Delft

Theory Briefing

  • TU Delft's colloquium applies control theory frameworks directly to lithium-ion batteries and proton exchange membrane fuel cells.
  • Control theory enables real-time feedback loops that optimize energy output and prevent dangerous degradation in battery systems.
  • Speaker Meng Jianwen's work bridges classical systems control and next-generation clean energy — a rare cross-domain synthesis.
