Werte in diesem Artikel
AUSTIN, Texas, Nov. 14, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Ideal Power Inc. (Nasdaq: IPWR) ("Ideal Power," the "Company," "we," "us" or "our"), pioneering the development and commercialization of the highly efficient and broadly patented B-TRAN™ bidirectional semiconductor power switch, reports results for its third quarter ended September 30, 2024.
"Our Q3 accomplishments underscore the continued execution of our B-TRAN™ commercial roadmap with several significant developments. We are collaborating with a third global automaker and recently secured initial orders from a global Tier 1 automotive supplier. We added our second and third distributors with expertise in demand-creation and they are already placing customer orders and providing quotes of our products to large global companies," said Dan Brdar, President and Chief Executive Officer of Ideal Power. "Overall, the momentum we are building is working to advance companies to orders followed by potential custom development agreements and/or design wins to drive long-term value creation for our shareholders."
Key Third Quarter and Recent Business Highlights
Execution to our B-TRAN™ commercial roadmap continues, including:
- Secured orders from a Global Tier 1 automotive supplier for numerous discrete B-TRAN™ devices, a SymCool® power module, a solid-state circuit breaker (SSCB) evaluation board and a driver. This customer is interested in using B-TRAN™ for solid-state electric vehicle (EV) contactor applications.
- Meeting regularly with Stellantis' technical and production teams with Phase III expected to begin shortly after Stellantis selects a Tier 1 supplier to design and build the drivetrain inverter for its new EV platform. In a parallel initiative, Stellantis continues working with the Company and a large semiconductor company with expertise in driver control circuity for the B-TRAN™ inverter drivers.
- Collaborating with a third global automaker. This auto OEM is evaluating B-TRAN™-enabled contactors as a potential replacement for electromechanical contactors in its EVs. The Company recently delivered a SSCB evaluation board to this automaker.
- Added our second distributor, RYOSHO. RYOSHO already placed orders with Ideal Power from a large global customer interested in the Company's products for solid-state circuit protection applications and introduced B-TRAN™ to global automakers based in Japan.
- Added our third distributor, Sekorm Advanced Technology (Shenzhen) Co., Ltd. In response to customer requests, Sekorm began quoting our products to large companies for SSCB applications.
- Initiated third-party automotive qualification and reliability testing of B-TRAN™ devices. This testing requires over a thousand packaged B-TRAN™ devices from multiple wafer runs. Initial test results are positive with no failures to date.
- Increased the current rating of our SymCool® power module from 160A to 200A, a 25% increase, based on the results of testing. In conjunction with a power module size reduction of approximately 50%, this significantly increases the power density of the SymCool® power module.
- B-TRAN™ Patent Estate: Currently at 90 issued B-TRAN™ patents with 42 of those issued outside of the United States and 50 pending B-TRAN™ patents. Current geographic coverage includes North America, China, Japan, South Korea, India, Europe, and Taiwan.
