将能量从太阳输送至开关,半导体芯片助力能量之旅
随着可再生能源日益普及,半导体芯片可以高效、安全地将能量输送到越来越多的家庭、建筑和城市
The world is consuming energy at an unprecedented rate. To help keep up with demand, technology is making renewable energy sources such as wind and solar more viable. In the first half of 2021 alone, renewable energy sources accounted for 92% of new electrical generating capacity in the U.S. with nearly half of those additions coming from solar.[1]
But how does energy from the sun make it to a light in your house? Part of the answer lies in the hundreds of semiconductors that touch the energy during its journey.
Watch the video above to see the role advanced semiconductors play in efficiently and safely advancing the journey of energy so that more homes, buildings and cities can be powered by the sun.
