AC-coupled systems are also better suited than DC to accommodate future solar or battery upgrades and for applications like microgrids that demand reliability and flexibility.

Available with a choice of current ratings (6A, 8A, 10A, 16A or 20A), they offer power electronics system designers a variety of performance advantages, including negligible reverse recovery current, high surge capability and a maximum operating junction temperature of 175°C, so they are suitable for applications that require enhanced efficiency, reliability and thermal management.

“We didn’t just focus on the person who wants to save on an electric bill but focused on emergency responders and state government, but in an affordable manner,” Brennan says. “To do this, we basically built a 20-kW inverter and throttled it down. We don’t have heating issues because we are not taxing the system.”

The average price for hydrogen fuel in California is about $16/kg — gasoline is sold by the gallon (volume) and hydrogen by the kilogram (weight). To put that in perspective, 1 gal of gasoline has about the same amount of energy as 1 kg of hydrogen. Most fuel cell electric cars carry about 5 kg to 6 kg of hydrogen but go twice the distance of a modern internal combustion engine car with equivalent gas in the tank, which works out to a gasoline-per-gallon equivalent between $5 and $6.

As the only Australian-based company to join the scheme, Redback Technologies is offering its storage solution, the Smart Hybrid Inverter, to South Australians at a subsidized cost.

Silicon power MOSFETs have not been able to keep pace with the changes in power electronics applications. Many applications have reached the silicon MOSFET’s theoretical performance limit, so they must turn to another semiconductor material, such as GaN.

The Indipro Tools’ Fusion Charger (Model: PD-M2S) features a 16.8V/2.5A charging output and a regulated 12V/6A, four-pin XLR DC output for powering cameras, lights and other devices in the field. It also supports 90-250VAC or 47-63Hz of power input. With a working temperature of 14 to 104 degrees Fahrenheit (-10 to 40 degrees Celsius), the Fusion Charger can operate just about anywhere that extreme temperatures might exist. Additionally, at just over four pounds (1820g) and 9.5 x 8.25 x 3-inches (240 x 210 x 78-mm) in size, the charger integrates nicely into any mobile workflow.
