SiC Patents Ramp in High-Power Applications

1 month ago | eepower.com | Shannon Cuthrell

The silicon carbide (SiC) patent landscape ended 2024 with strong activity as the technology expanded its role in high-power applications like renewable power grids, electric vehicle fast-charging systems, and industrial inverters. SiC materials are attracting high adoption levels for their superior efficiency and durability over conventional silicon semiconductors.
Analayzing Thermal Effects on DC Link Capacitors

1 month ago | eepower.com | Liam Critchley

Thermal stresses can affect the life of direct current link capacitors (DCLC) used in smart grids. DCLCs, based on metalized film capacitor (MPFC) technology, are a critical part of power electronics. In power electronic systems, DCLCs are primarily used to store energy, filter harmonics, and sustain the voltage to provide instantaneous energy transfer and reactive power conversion functions. However, the effects of thermal stress on the lifetime of DCLCs are not widely reported.

Using Solar Energy, Researchers Grow Copper Nano Flowers for Clean Fuel

2 months ago | eepower.com | Jake Hertz

Researchers at the University of Cambridge and the University of California, Berkeley, have recently developed a photoelectrochemical (PEC) system that efficiently converts carbon dioxide (CO2) into C2 hydrocarbons using solar energy. The device uses a light-absorbing perovskite "leaf" and a copper "nanoflower" catalyst to turn carbon dioxide into useful molecules for energy production.
Examining Pollution’s Impact on Insulator Flashover in HV Systems

2 months ago | eepower.com | Bob Odhiambo

In high-voltage systems, insulation is a critical component that needs to be closely considered for safe and reliable electric power transmission and distribution. Insulation directly affects grid efficiency as it is designed to prevent unwanted paths for current or current leakage by isolating the high-voltage conductors from supporting structures.
