Professor Alex Huang from UT Austin has secured a Department of Energy grant to advance a modular hybrid solid-state transformer (H-SST) project. This initiative includes collaboration with Control Transformer, a company specializing in custom designed and manufactured magnetics including transformers, reactors, chokes, inductors and custom enclosures. The H-SST will incorporate advanced technologies to improve grid resilience and adaptability, allowing for enhanced power flow control and faster recovery from disruptions. The project involves designing a 500 kVA H-SST prototype, aiming to modernize the U.S. power grid infrastructure by integrating these cutting-edge technologies.
