Imeon developing silicon carbide inverters

Imeon, a French hybrid inverter manufacturer, has partnered with École Nationale Supérieure de l'Électronique et de ses Applications (ENSEA) and engineering school CentraleSupélec to develop new silicon carbide inverters.France-based inverter manufacturer Imeon has developed photovoltaic inverters featuring transistors with silicon carbide crystals. Silicon carbide-based inverters are known to have higher power densities, with less need for cooling and lower overall system costs than traditional inverters. However, defects at the interface between the silicon carbide and the insulating silicon ...
