China's first independent silicon carbide car "core" Zhuzhou off the production line

On December 26th, the 2nd CRRC Electric Drive Independent Innovation Technology Summit Forum opened in Zhuzhou, Hunan. Experts from institutions, universities and enterprises such as China Association of Automobile Manufacturers, Huazhong University of Science and Technology, AND FAW Group discussed the development trend of the new energy automobile industry, cutting-edge technologies such as electric drives, power devices and new automotive materials. At the meeting, CRRC Passenger Vehicle Electric Drive Industry Alliance was awarded the license and issued a declaration. On the same day, CRRC Times Electric announced that it has successfully achieved an annual production of 100,000 units of electric drive systems this year. Among them, the C-Power 220s, which was incubated by its C-Car platform and developed by China's first high-power electric drive based on independent silicon carbide, was officially rolled off the production line, and the efficiency of the electric drive system was up to 94%.

The electric drive system is one of the "three electric" systems of new energy vehicles, and it is also an indispensable core component, which is known as the "core" of the car. The new C-Power 220s electric drive system independently developed by Times Electric is manufactured by the third generation of semiconductor material silicon carbide. According to reports, silicon carbide is one of the ideal materials for making high-temperature, high-frequency, high-power, high-voltage devices, and solutions based on silicon carbide can make the system more efficient, lighter and more compact. For example, the C-Power 220s high-voltage silicon carbide electric drive system with silicon carbide technology has the advantages of high system power density, low system loss and strong endurance, and its system efficiency can reach up to 94%, which can adapt to the current new energy vehicles high-frequency fast charging, long endurance, high safety needs, and is widely adapted to high-end cars, SUVs and other models, bringing users a safer, more efficient and energy-saving driving experience.

In recent years, the global new energy automobile industry has entered a new stage of rapid development, and high-performance electric drive systems have become a "compulsory course" for industry research. CRRC Times Electric inherits the key core technology of China's high-speed rail, after 7 years of independent development, has established two production and research and development bases in Zhuzhou, Hunan and Wuxi, Jiangsu, deeply cultivated the research of automotive electric drive system, and created a perfect upstream and downstream key industrial chain of the electric drive industry, which can provide comprehensive intelligent solutions.
