About the Company

Amperesand

Modular solid-state transformers for grid power

Amperesand develops modular solid-state transformers (SSTs) for grid infrastructure using silicon carbide (SiC) devices and proprietary high-frequency transformers. The SSTs are digitally controlled and bidirectional, offered in 2, 4, and 6 MW modules that can be combined to meet larger needs, replacing traditional transformers, switchgear, and UPS in a single AI-driven system. It differentiates itself through the combination of SiC SSTs, proprietary high-frequency transformers, digital power management, and leadership from NTU R&D spun out with Temasek’s Xora Innovation, plus an experienced team from ABB, GE, Siemens, and Vestas. The goal is to speed up the energy transition by delivering scalable, compact SST systems for EV charging networks, microgrids, data centers, and industrial power, with first deliveries planned for 2025 in the US and Singapore.
