The continuing efforts to decarbonize power generation include massive deployment of electric vehicles, PV plants and wind farms to reduce dependence on fossil fuels. Battery storage and charging infrastructure are cornerstones of these efforts, with the annual demand of lithium-ion batteries expected to reach 800GWh/year by 2025. The next generation of large power electronics converters (AC/DC and DC/DC) are crucial to realize the rapid deployment of 1000V battery energy storage systems in renewable power plants, utility scale backup systems, and EV bulk charging stations. Key requirements include compact, lightweight, modular systems with remarkable intelligence. These features will allow easy transportation, deployment, parallel connection (very high power) of new 1000V battery charging systems while enabling optimal power flow and high efficiency operation. The objective of the collaboration between Dr. Ordonez at the University of British Columbia and Alpha Technologies (an EnerSys company), is to develop the next generation of power electronics conversion systems for battery energy storage with high efficiency, high power density, and wide output regulation. Alpha Technologies Ltd., one of the top high-tech employers in BC, is a leading company in powering solutions and EnerSys (parent company) is a global company with ~20% of the global battery storage market. This R&D project combines novel semiconductor devices (wide-bandgap), advanced passive components and heat management, novel topologies, and control methods to enhance regulation and efficiency, and system-level functions such as predictive maintenance to reduce the size, improve efficiency, and increase reliability of new 1000V charging systems. With the development and incorporation of these core technologies, the growing energy storage, renewable energy, electric vehicle, and telecommunications industries will access major technological advantages and accelerate their deployment. The project aligns with the government of Canada's initiatives to promote energy efficiency and clean energy technology.

持续努力使发电脱碳，包括大规模部署电动汽车、光伏电站和风力发电场，以减少对化石燃料的依赖。电池存储和充电基础设施是这些努力的基石，预计到2025年，锂离子电池的年需求量将达到800 GWh/年。下一代大型电力电子转换器（AC/DC和DC/DC）对于实现可再生发电厂、公用事业规模备用系统和EV批量充电站中1000 V电池储能系统的快速部署至关重要。关键要求包括具有卓越智能的紧凑、轻量、模块化系统。这些功能将使新的1000 V电池充电系统易于运输、部署、并联（非常高的功率），同时实现最佳的功率流和高效率的操作。 不列颠哥伦比亚省大学的Ordonez博士与Alpha Technologies（EnerSys公司）合作的目标是开发下一代电力电子转换系统，用于电池储能，具有高效率，高功率密度和宽输出调节。阿尔法科技有限公司，作为不列颠哥伦比亚省最大的高科技雇主之一，EnerSys是一家领先的电源解决方案公司，EnerSys（母公司）是一家全球性公司，占全球电池存储市场的约20%。 该研发项目结合了新型半导体器件（宽带隙）、先进的无源元件和热管理、新型拓扑结构和控制方法，以增强调节和效率，以及系统级功能，如预测性维护，以减小尺寸，提高效率，并提高新的1000 V充电系统的可靠性。随着这些核心技术的发展和融合，不断增长的储能、可再生能源、电动汽车和电信行业将获得重大技术优势，并加速其部署。该项目与加拿大政府促进能源效率和清洁能源技术的举措保持一致。
