Why AI Data Centers Became the First Real Market for Solid-State Transformers
Solid-state transformers are finding their first major market in AI data centers, which require direct current power for their server racks. This technology, unlike traditional transformers designed in the 1880s, uses semiconductor switching for voltage conversion, allowing for mass manufacturing, modularity, and reduced size. Companies like Amperesand, Heron Power, and DG Matrix have raised significant funding to bring this technology to market, with AI data centers derisking the technology for broader adoption in areas like electric vehicle charging and modern homes.
