Sineng Electric and onsemi Cement Strategic Alliance with a Joint Laboratory for Sustainable Energy Applications

2023-02-24

Amid feverish anticipation, the joint laboratory, which was set up by Sineng Electric and onsemi, was inaugurated, with a view to pursue tremendous opportunities for the renewable energy industry to flourish. The grand opening ceremony was witnessed by Qiang Wu, Chairman of Sineng Electric, Jianfei Li, Vice President & CTO of Sineng Electric, David Chow, Senior VP (Asia Pacific) of onsemi, Roy Chia, Vice President of Sales of onsemi China, and other leaders.

Deploying onsemi's best-in-class product line-up, R&D engineers from Sineng attempt at bringing new upgrades in the energy efficiency, product compatibility, and safety design of inverter applications. Thus, the process to verify IGBT's adaptability to PV inverters, including the evaluation of IGBT transistors, SiC diodes, SiC MOSFETs, and IGBT modules becomes increasingly indispensable. With the support of the lab, an industry-level evaluation system will be built to test the semiconductor's features, including temperature rise, voltage stress, thermal resistance, temperature adaptation, and lifetime. Through the partnership, we seek to advance in renewables and build a base for applications in various scenarios.

As a global leader in intelligent power and sensing technologies, onsemi is one of Sineng's most trusted allies. Chairman of Sineng Electric Qiang Wu claimed that "establishing a joint lab is not only a sign that we attach supreme importance to the relations with onsemi, but also a signal that we have forged ahead in great strides in reshaping the future of energy."

"This cooperation is filled with expectations and we look forward to starting a brand new chapter with Sineng," said David Chow, Senior VP (Asia Pacific) of onsemi. "By teaming up with Sineng in resource sharing, product innovation, exchange of expertise, etc., we aim to drive technological development, spur innovations, facilitate the upgrading of the solar industry, and catalyze the energy transition."
