Develop electrical technology from components to systems
Engineers use MATLAB® and Simulink® to develop electrical technologies that help increase reliability, improve efficiency, and mitigate climate change, from motor control and battery management for electric vehicles to integrating renewable energy into the power grid.
Perform grid-scale integration studies, develop wind and solar farm architecture and control systems.
Develop embedded software for motor-inverter systems.
Perform vehicle-level electrical system and control design for electric transportation.
Design battery packs and develop battery management systems.
Develop network architecture and perform system-level and control system design of power system infrastructure.
Develop architectures and controls for PEM fuel cells and electrolyzers in hydrogen systems.
Develop embedded software for high, medium, and low power converter architectures.
Conduct bulk power grid analysis and planning for generation, transmission, and distribution systems.
Perform power system analysis and energy management design for residential and commercial buildings.
“Model-Based Design helped us apply the design and verification methods required by ISO 26262, including back-to-back verification and test coverage assessment. In particular, the automated test cases and reports in Simulink Test contributed significantly to reduced testing efforts.”

“When we sell an energy storage system, our customers often need to verify that it will work on their grids, so we provide them with the same Simulink plant model that we used to develop our EMS software suite. As a result, we are able to run accurate simulations before installing any equipment on the client’s grid, and can provide this service at a competitive cost.”
Adile Ajaja, EVLO
“The Two-Mode Hybrid powertrain took Model-Based Design to a new level within GM. This project provided the confidence and experience we needed to apply MathWorks tools for Model-Based Design on other large-scale global engineering programs.”
Kent Helfrich, General Motors
