Gerold Schulze

The idea of a power electronics platform close to the battery cell was the reason for founding p&e power&energy GmbH, in which Gerold Schulze, together with other partners and colleagues, has been driving forward the development of this innovative approach for 5 years. With 15 years of experience in the development of power electronics for solar systems in the power range up to 1 MW/1500V and 5 years of experience in the development of stationary battery storage systems, Gerold tries to show the synergies of different industrial sectors with regard to error patterns of electrical systems and possible solutions. Gerold trained as a stonemason and stone sculptor, which, in addition to his fascination with silicon, taught him humility in the face of hard physical labor. After a bachelor's degree in electrical engineering, specializing in energy technology/power electronics, he completed a master's degree in renewable energies and energy efficiency, a master's degree in business law for technology companies and a master's degree in mechanical engineering.
