His work focuses on power converters and power electronic systems — core technologies embedded in nearly all modern electrical infrastructure, from electric vehicle chargers to advanced energy systems. He also studies how to enhance the safety, reliability, and performance of electrical systems, particularly when they operate as part of large, interconnected networks.

The societal impact of Andrii Chub’s research is significant and internationally recognised. His publications have been cited more than 4,200 times, demonstrating that researchers worldwide actively rely on and build upon his work. In 2025, he was once again included in the Stanford/Elsevier list of the world’s top 2% most influential scientists, highlighting his outstanding global scientific contribution.

Mart Landsberg, Director of the Department of Electrical Power Engineering and Mechatronics, describes Chub’s work as exceptionally impactful:

“His research has strong practical value, and he is a recognised leader in his field. Andrii Chub combines international visibility with the ability to lead large-scale research projects. At the same time, he actively supports the development of young engineering researchers, strengthening TalTech’s influence in this strategically important area. This is exactly the level of ambition and performance expected from a leading scientist.”

In addition to his research leadership, Chub supervises students and early-career researchers, guiding them in hands-on scientific work and applied engineering research.

His career illustrates how exciting and transformative scientific research can be — and how profoundly it can shape both everyday life and the future of global energy systems.
