About this position

Data centres powering modern artificial intelligence workloads currently account for more than 2% of global electricity consumption, a figure projected to rise substantially over the next decade. In hyperscale facilities, around 30% of input electrical energy is lost as heat during power conversion and distribution. To address the power conversion challenges outlined in the UK’s Clean Power 2030, Solid-State Transformers (SSTs) that combine wide-bandgap power semiconductors and high-frequency magnetics offer the power density, efficiency, and bidirectional power-flow control required for AI da
