There is now a silicon-carbide-based power module—a physical housing for the power electronics that controls the flow of electricity between systems—with never-before-seen efficiency, power density, and low-cost manufacturability. It’s suitable for use in data centers, power grids, microreactors, and even heavy-duty vehicles such as next-generation aircraft and military vehicles.
