28 ADVANCING POWER EFFICIENCY https://www.rirpowersemi.com/ Issue 1 2026 Power Electronics Europe www.power-mag.com demanding applications by combining Schottky-like switching performance with enhanced surge, thermal, and high-voltage robustness. This makes them ideally suited for EV traction inverters, renewable energy systems, industrial drives, aerospace, and green hydrogen applications where high-power density, efficiency, ruggedness, and thermal performance are equally critical: Electric Vehicles (EVs & HEVs) Traction inverters, onboard chargers, and DC-DC converters benefit from reduced losses, higher efficiency, and improved fault tolerance. Data Centers & AI Infrastructure High-efficiency UPS, PDU, and server power systems benefit through reduced switching losses, higher power density, and enhanced reliability under continuous high-load operation—critical for hyperscale, edge, and AI-driven data centers with stringent uptime and energy-efficiency requirements. Renewable Energy & Grid Infrastructure Solar inverters, wind power converters, and energy storage systems gain higher power density and improved reliability under grid disturbances. Industrial Power Supplies & Motor Drives High-frequency switching, improved thermal margins, and surge robustness enable compact, high-performance industrial designs. Aerospace & Defense Power Systems Extreme environmental resilience, fast switching, and high voltage capability align with mission-critical reliability requirements. Green Hydrogen & Electrolysis Systems High-efficiency rectification and robust high-voltage performance support continuous operation and long service life.
