Flip the Switch on Reliable Modern Energy

April 24, 2025
Silicon carbide has a key role to play in meeting the growing demands for electricity.

With electricity demand expected to more than double by 2050, silicon-carbide (SiC) power modules will assist in bringing renewable-energy resources online. The eBook Flip the Switch on Reliable Modern Energy explains how SiC will help meet the increasing power requirements by connecting wind, solar, and other distributed energy resources to the AC power grid.
In it, you’ll discover:

  • The importance of high-voltage DC link technology: Investigate effective ways of transferring energy from a high-voltage DC link to the AC grid for distribution to residences, factories, data centers, healthcare facilities, transportation infrastructure, and other power consumers. 
  • The role of SiC for renewable-energy applications: Study different circuit topologies that can implement efficient power-conversion systems for solar, wind, and other renewable-energy applications.
  • A SiC versus IGBT performance comparison: Learn about the advantages of SiC with its high switching speeds and low losses compared to other semiconductor technologies.

Download this eBook today to learn how Wolfspeed Gen 4 SiC MOSFETs will enable reliable and efficient power-conversion systems that will connect renewable- and distributed-energy resources to the AC grid for customers worldwide.
