Problem
Conventional transformers used in electrical grids, industrial settings, and military applications face limitations in weight, size, efficiency, voltage regulation, and smart network capabilities. These limitations can lead to increased losses, higher costs, and reduced adaptability to modern power demands, including integration with renewable energy sources and electric vehicles.
Solution
Solid State Power (SSP) develops next-generation solid-state transformers (SSTs) that address the shortcomings of traditional transformers. By leveraging advancements in power semiconductors and novel topologies, SSP's SSTs offer significant improvements in performance parameters. These include radical reductions in weight and size, power factor correction exceeding 0.99, inherent voltage regulation for constant output, and smart network capabilities for real-time control and monitoring. SSP's technology also enables integrated DC connectivity for electric vehicles, renewable power generation, and power storage, achieving efficiency levels of 98%+.
