About Build more efficient heat pumps and air conditioning systems with Silicon Carbide

Meet key heat pump and air conditioner energy regulations with silicon carbide and enable up to 2.5% overall efficiency improvement while overcoming thermal limitations that plague traditional Silicon IGBTs.

In this webinar, a silicon carbide expert will dig into why it is time to modernize heat pump and air conditioning systems to address climate change. The expert will demonstrate how Wolfspeed’s silicon carbide devices achieve stringent efficiency targets while reducing overall system size, cost, and audible noise.

Key Takeaways:

  • Meet efficiency standards: Meet global efficiency standards including ESEER, SEER, and GB21455 when you replace traditional IGBTs with drop-in Wolfspeed silicon carbide replacements
  • Overall reduction in system losses: Up to 50% less losses when you design heat pumps and air conditioners with Wolfspeed Silicon Carbide
  • Lower system costs and reduced audible noise: Reduce overall system costs by 20-40% with Wolfspeed silicon carbide while reducing audible noise
