A power electronics module is provided having one or more power converter semiconductor components. The power electronics module further has a substrate having a first surface to which the one or more components are mounted, and having an opposing second surface from which project a plurality of heat transfer formations for enhancing heat transfer from the substrate. The power electronics module further has a coolant housing which sealingly connects to the substrate to form a void over the heat transfer formations of the second surface. The coolant housing has an inlet for directing a flow of an electrically insulating coolant into the void and an outlet for removing the coolant flow from the void, whereby heat generated during operation of the one or more components is transferred into the coolant flow via the substrate.
