Study Finds ‘Smart’ Transformers Could Make Reliable Smart Grid a Reality

Solid-state transformers, developed at NC State, can make the smart grid concept a reality.
A new study using complex computational models finds that smart solid-state transformers (SSTs) could be used to make a stable, reliable "smart grid" - allowing the power distribution system to route renewable energy from homes and businesses into the power grid.
