The Department of Electrical Engineering and Power Engineering is a unit of the Faculty of Electrical Engineering, Automatics, Computer Science and Biomedical Engineering created on 1 January 2008 as a result of fusion of two departments: Department of Electrical Engineering and Department of Power Engineering.

In its present shape, the Department continues activity of both former departments in two basic research areas:

• transfer and distribution of electrical energy, technical, economic and environmental aspects of exploitation in power engineering;

• theory of non-linear electrical circuits, analysis and application of cellular neural networks, analysis of electromagnetic field, build and exploitation of fuel cells

The Department cooperates with Polish and international partners, and the results are presented at international conferences. The scientific and technical activity of the staff is also realized in various home and international institutes and associations, e.g. CIGRE, IEEE, Electrical Engineering Committee PAS, PTETiS, Association of Polish Electrical Engineers SEP.

The scientific research conducted at the Department covers:

• designing and analysis of power networks and systems;

• analysis and synthesis of linear and non-linear electrical circuits;

• computer methods of power system analysis and modeling;

• optimization of distribution networks;

• analysis of disturbance states in power systems;

• development and exploitation of power networks in the free market conditions;

• economic efficiency of network investments;

• selection, evaluation and optimization of insulation systems of high voltage power systems;

• diagnostics of power systems aided by image and signal analysis computer methods;

• overvoltage and lightning protection of electrical devices and buildings;

• electromagnetic influence in power energy;

• environmental impact of power objects;

• high voltage measurements and tests; tests with alternating voltage 50 Hz, stroke tests;

• dynamics of non-linear electrical circuits;

• evaluation of non-linear solutions of electrical circuits;

• non-linear positive circuits and use of computers in didactics;

• design of models for non-linear dynamic systems;

• analysis of electromagnetic field with finite and edge element method;

• cryoelectrical engineering - analysis of selected aspects;

• use of evolution methods for automatic designing of passive and active electrical filters;

• coupled networks of non-linear systems;

• non-linear methods of signal processing.
