Autonomous vehicles + electric vehicles = the intersection of two massive mobility trends shaping the future of transportation. While our focus at DG Matrix is on electrification, there's another major mobility trend that is impossible to ignore: autonomous vehicles. As companies like Waymo expand their fleets nationally, bringing autonomous vehicles in cities across the country, there's a significant opportunity to merge the two trends of autonomous and electric mobility. When we deploy EV charging infrastructure for autonomous vehicles, there are several requirements to consider: --> Higher-power charging. Since AVs are not constrained by the constraints of human drivers, they can run nearly 24/7 and need to get back on the road quickly. --> Ultra-high utilization rates. AV operations can be planned with exceptional accuracy, so charging infrastructure can be built for optimal utilization. This means chargers must be able to operate nearly continuously. --> Flexibility and efficiency with dynamic power sharing. Maximizing asset utilization is absolutely key to improve operational efficiencies. --> Small footprint. Most AVs are deployed in high-density urban areas, so charging infrastructure must be able to fit in tight spaces.

Introducing "Tech Tuesdays" by DG Matrix, where we break down complicated technical topics into easy-to-read chunks! Today's topic: Silicon Carbide. Silicon carbide transistors play a key role in electrification by enabling more efficient and better-performing power management. In fact, all Power Router products use silicon carbide to enhance performance! Check out the one-pager below where we explore how silicon carbide came to be, what its advantages are, and how it's used at DG Matrix. #semiconductors #techtuesday #siliconcarbide #sic #electrification

Energy: We need a lot more of it. For the last 15 years or so, electricity demand in the United States has been relatively flat. But now, we are seeing unprecedented surges in electricity demand like never before. Electrification is accelerating across every industry—AI datacenters, EV fleets, buildings, and more. However, the reality is that our energy infrastructure isn’t keeping up. Long upgrade timelines, rising costs, and outdated systems are holding back the potential of cleaner, more reliable power. Our existing energy infrastructure needs a radical shift, and DG Matrix is delivering the world's most innovative solutions to enable us to scale electrification quickly and safely while lowering energy costs. Let’s drive the solutions that power the future. Image source: The New York Times #EnergyTransition #Electrification #Sustainability #CleanEnergy #FutureOfPower
