With Solar + Storage becoming a growing trend, energy storage converters must consider the requirements of solar.

For AC-coupled systems, a bidirectional AC/DC converter is required. SEMIKRON offers a portfolio of power modules with topologies, which increase efficiency while both charging and discharging the batteries.

DC-Coupled systems

SEMIKRON will also discuss DC/DC topologies for DC-coupled systems, which can pair with 3-Level solar inverters. In order to meet 1500VDC designs, SEMIKRON now offers the latest 950V Generation 7 IGBTs with optimized designs for improved performance.

Lastly, they will discuss implementing Silicon Carbide in an intelligent way to improve efficiency and power density, while keeping costs to a minimum.

Key Take-Aways:

  • Which topologies are advantageous for AC- and DC-coupled systems?
  • How are the latest Generation 7 IGBTs optimized for storage designs?
  • How is Silicon Carbide integrated to balance cost and performance?​​​​​​​
