New Energy Silicon Carbide Inverter Manufacturer

Chinese inverter manufacturer Sinexcel will unveil new hybrid inverters for residential applications this week at the SNEC PV Power Expo in Shanghai, China. “Our new hybrid inverter utilizes advanced silicon carbide technology, providing longer lifespan, higher efficiency, and a compact size,” a company spokesperson told pv magazine.

A cruising test conducted under specific conditions by BEV using SiC semiconductor inverters demonstrated inverters with SiC power semiconductor reduce power loss less than half of ones with Si semiconductor. As a result, the energy efficiency of BEVs is improved and cruising range is extended.

KARIYA, Japan (Mar. 31, 2023) – DENSO CORPORATION, a leading mobility supplier, announced it has developed its first-ever inverter with silicon carbide (SiC) semiconductors.

STMicroelectronics (NYSE: STM), a global semiconductor leader serving customers across the spectrum of electronics applications, is introducing its fourth generation STPOWER silicon carbide (SiC) MOSFET technology. The Generation 4 technology brings new benchmarks in power efficiency, power density and robustness.

Kaco New Energy, a German inverter manufacturer, has developed two new inverters for commercial and industrial (C&I) solar projects. These inverters ensure a high level of profitability for complex solar roofs and offer unique advantages such as 200 percent oversizing.

The Generation 4 technology brings new benchmarks in power efficiency, power density and robustness. While serving the needs of both the automotive and industrial markets, the new technology is particularly optimized for traction inverters, the key component of electric vehicle (EV) powertrains.
