Kansai Electric and Cree
Demonstrate a 100 kVA Silicon Carbide Three Phase Inverter

The silicon carbide (SiC) power inverter
phase leg pictured above, developed jointly by Cree
of Durham, NC, and Kansai Electric Power Company of Osaka,
Japan, is part of a 110 kVA three-phase inverter
that could reduce conversion losses by 50 percent
compared to existing silicon (Si) inverters. An
inverter is used to convert power from DC to AC, to change
operating frequency in variable speed motor drives and
to transfer power onto the grid from battery, wind and
solar sources. Click here to read the press release.
