Our passion for innovation and commitment to creating a better future for society and the environment drive us to continuously push the boundaries of what's possible. We're bringing together governments, industry, and academia to solve the world's toughest power management challenges and advancing state-of-the-art technologies to shape a more sustainable, clean-energy future.
Bringing together industry, academia, and research to accelerate new technologies and breakthroughs
Charting the path to efficiently translate ideas into next-generation, commercially scalable solutions.
From projects developing new approaches for EV fast charging —targeting 65% cost savings and rapid deployment of charging infrastructure — to carbon-neutral aviation technologies that meet the growing demands demands for more sustainable military and commercial air travel, our R&D efforts are at the forefront of the electric revolution.
Growing demands for electrification are putting stress on an aging grid and better utilization of existing distributed energy resources (DER) to enhance long-term resilience is essential. We're optimizing the widest range of utility and microgrid solutions to accelerate more flexible grid operations and global decarbonization, enabling the use of more renewables like solar and other clean energy sources.
Digital transformation is essential for decarbonization. Together with our partners, we’re advancing innovations like additive manufacturing and leveraging AI to design and optimize complexities that will significantly reduce the time and cost of designing and manufacturing components. Evolving these technologies to be safer, more efficient, and more reliable is critical for a net-zero emissions future.
