AUSTIN, Texas, Nov. 14, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Ideal Power Inc. (“Ideal Power” or the “Company”) (Nasdaq: IPWR), pioneering the development and commercialization of the highly efficient and broadly patented B-TRAN™ bidirectional semiconductor power switch, reported results for its third quarter ended September 30, 2022.
“Our progress toward B-TRAN™ commercialization continues as we engaged with another top 10 global automaker, entering into a product development agreement. In addition, we shipped additional B-TRAN™ devices to Diversified Technologies, Inc. (DTI), our Naval Sea Systems Command (NAVSEA) program collaboration partner, in preparation for a full-scale medium voltage direct current (MVDC) circuit breaker demonstration. We also engaged a design partner who is nearing completion of the packaging design of our first commercial product, a multi-die power module. Heading into the remaining weeks of 2022, we remain focused on execution toward delivering on our objective of introducing our first commercial B-TRAN™ module by year end,” stated Dan Brdar, President and Chief Executive Officer of Ideal Power.
