Pulsed power applications research: From super critical switches to renewable fuels

Important aspects of pulsed power processing that up to now received little attention are opened and summarized. A start is made in dealing with these aspects. They can be summarized as matching power source to process by controlling the global parameters impedance, time distribution, energy distribution and spatial distribution. An application is presented that can help changing the future of the energy policy: direct conversion of renewable power into fuels.
