A strategic regroupment

The L2EP was born thanks to the will of 4 establishments working in partnership : The University of Science and Technology of Lille, Arts et Métiers ParisTech, l''Ecole Centrale de Lille, Hautes Etudes d''Ingénieur. The idea was to bring together, in the same laboratory, all the activities of research in electronic engineering.The L2EP was established in Lille and has an international influence. The L2EP is a major actor in its areas of research. It''s directed by Professor Francis Piriou.


A research partnership

Privileged partner of the industrial world, the L2EP is committed, in conjunction with other academic labs and research institutes to research projects of excellence, both in France and across the world. It runs common common research projects, such as , a French pôle of technological research (energy management of electric drives). It also brings its expertise to SEEDS (French academic network on electrical engineering), to MEGEVH (French network on hybrid vehicles) and created a common lab with EDF R&D, known as LAMEL. The lab is part of ARTS Carnot Institute (Actions on Research for Technology and Society) a national organization established to respond to technological challenges.


Complementary teams

The L2EP brings together 26 researchers who receive, each year, approximately 40 PhD students. They are divided into 5 teams. 
Their work covers all the fields of the management of electrical engineering.
