SiC in renewable energy systems is more efficient

Essential renewable energy solutions such as wind and solar, often used in conjunction with energy storage, are one of the fastest growing sectors in the industry, and wideband gap silicon carbide (SiC) technology is at the heart of these solutions. End-system designers have determined that SiC power semiconductors enable more efficient, smaller, and cost-effective solutions than silicon (Si). SiC components offer higher reliability in handling grid-level voltage and exceptional performance.
