These advantages have led to the steady proliferation of the field power electronics over the past decades to the extent that it has been estimated that by 2030, 80 % of all electricity in the U.S.A would be processed by some form of power electronics [1]. Globally, the power electronics market is expected to reach USD 44 billion by 2025 [2]. At a national level, recently-announced Govt. of India plans of realizing 500 GW of renewable energy capacity [3] and 30% penetration of private electric vehicles (EVs) [4] by 2030 and the rapid growth of data centers in the country [5] are just some of many examples which underscore the scope and importance of power electronics in India today.
