One of these, the Engineering Research Center for Power Optimization for Electro-Thermal Systems (POETS), aims to enhance or increase the electric power density available in tightly constrained mobile environments by changing the design. POETS uses system level analysis tools to identify barriers to increased power density.

Researchers at the University of Georgia (UGA) have crossed American sweetgums with their Chinese cousins, creating hybrid sweetgum trees that have a better growth rate and denser wood than natives, and can produce fiber year-round. But sweetgums—including hybrids—have already adapted to grow in the region in a variety of sites.

CIRCUITS project teams will accelerate the development and deployment of a new class of efficient, lightweight, and reliable power converters, based on wide-bandgap (WBG) semiconductors. If successful, the team will construct a 500 kW building block for a DC fast charger that is at least four times the power density of todays installed units.
