Résumé

The talk will first explain the state of the art in traction and grid using the standard silicon IGBTs. The first prototypes of traction SiC converters based on SiC MOSFET & JBS will be described with the performance achieved. Then, using the calculated characteristics with higher voltage SiC, we will propose some prospective in traction converters, e-transformers, MVDC & HVDC DCDC converters for grid applications
