Power Up

Decarbonization will require clean energy sources, and hydrogen power is becoming one of the more promising alternative energy options. In this podcast we will talk about hydrogen power with Susanné Wallner, who helps manage a testbed for sustainable technologies in Sweden, and Patrick Le Fèvre, CMO of Powerbox.

SiC technology provides superior switching and improved thermal performance compared with similar silicon devices. This translates into improved efficiency, higher power density, better electromagnetic interference (EMI), and reduced system size and weight. New SiC designs are emerging to meet growing high-power requirements for electric vehicles and other energy applications. In this podcast, Vic...

Solar, wind, and other renewable energy sources are set to grow dramatically in the coming years. As distributed generation becomes more widespread, the grid will need to be increasingly flexible. Distributed energy resources are an essential part of the future of renewable energy. In this podcast, Robert L. Misback, and Adam Kabulski, will explain the future of renewable energy adoption and how r...
