New technology could help cut power losses and reinvent a staple of the grid.

Solid-State Transformers Gain Traction in AI Data Centers The shift to high-voltage direct current (HVDC) power distribution is gaining momentum within newer data center designs that utilize high-performance GPUs, prompting increased interest in solid-state transformers (SSTs). These devices offer a way to convert medium-voltage alternating current (AC) directly to 800 V DC, reducing equipment size
