silicon carbide

Fraunhofer ISE is exploring how medium-voltage technology can reduce the use of raw materials such as copper and aluminium in PV systems.

PV Talk: Owen Schelenz of GE Vernova explains why silicon carbide power conversion technology is once again on the agenda for utility solar.

A research project has produced a silicon carbide inverter capable of enabling large-scale solar systems to connect directly to medium-voltage grids without the need of a transformer.
