Powerland Group is a leading power conversion company, providing full service and solutions for electric vehicles, industrial, medical and other high-end power electronics applications, where efficiency, reliability, lifetime, and power density are the primary challenges. Under the leadership of power electronics scientists from one of the top research laboratories in the world, CPES-Virginia Tech, Powerland has become the largest power electronics design house in China. Powerland is globally recognized and respected as an innovative high-technology, reliable and capable firm in customizing robust and unique power supplies.
Dr. Ming Xu is the Founder and Chairman of Nanjing Powerland Electronic Technology Co., Ltd. A globally recognized authority in power electronics and energy management, Dr. Xu previously served as an Associate Professor and Chief Scientist at the Center for Power Electronics Systems (CPES) at Virginia Tech—often cited as the "cradle of power electronics research." In 2009, he returned to China to found Powerland, anchoring the company's core technical team with elite professionals from CPES. Under his strategic vision, Powerland has evolved over the past decade into a premier high-tech enterprise specializing in cutting-edge power conversion R&D and manufacturing. Dr. Xu earned his Ph.D. from Zhejiang University, holds over 60 U.S. patents, and has contributed extensively to the field with three monographs and more than 150 published papers.
In 2009, Dr. Ming Xu founded Powerland Electronics alongside four fellow PhDs from the renowned Voltage Regulator Module (VRM) research team at Virginia Tech's Center for Power Electronics Systems (CPES): Julu Sun, Yang Qiu, Juanjuan Sun, and Chuanyun Wang. This "founding five" had already established a deep-rooted collaboration during their tenure in the United States—a partnership that has now spanned over 25 years. Their collective research remains foundational to the industry; today, nearly every CPU power supply solution worldwide is built upon the breakthroughs achieved by this core group. Over the 17 years since Powerland's inception, the leadership has further strengthened with the addition of partners Ms. Lihong Xu, Mr. Yuan Yao, Mr. Jukui Wei, and Mr. Jianbing Xu.
National-level “Specialized and New Key Small Giant Enterprise”
Powerland University Cooperation initiative is built on three parts: collaborative research projects, post-doctoral research station, and on-site PhD programs
1. Global Research Partnerships
Since 2007, Powerland has cooperated with top universities in China and United States, including Virginia Tech, Tsinghua University, Zhejiang University, Xi'an Jiaotong University and Nanjing University of Aeronautics and Astronautics. These cooperation continue to develop and form long-term innovation system
2. Post-Doctoral & Doctoral Excellence
In 2009, Powerland was approved as post-doctoral research station in Jiangsu Province, providing good benefits and research environment for PhD graduates. CEO Dr. Ming Xu also serves as guest professor at Xi'an Jiaotong University and NUAA, guiding PhD students and connecting theory with industrial application
3. Specialized Education & Training
Dr. Ming Xu together with CPES alumni from Virginia Tech developed fundamental courses and workshops for power supply design engineers. These courses are based on solid theory and include research results from CPES team. CPES is well known engineering research center, and its technologies such as multi-phase concept and coupled inductor are widely used in industry
