A versatile high-performance e-mobility platform

High-performance, scalable e-mobility modules like the RoadPak™ and other silicon carbide (SiC) semiconductors offer significant efficiency gains in the electric vehicle (EV) powertrain. They drive e-mobility applications like e-vehicles and e-buses, which are more in demand than ever, following governmental and global initiatives for renewable and sustainable mobility.

To meet these demands, Hitachi Energy developed RoadPak, a versatile e-mobility platform that is optimized to deliver the highest performance and reliability. It achieves this by using up to 10 SiC chips in parallel, supporting for various chipsets of different generations from various suppliers.
