the installation of LED lights at Bicentennial

An all-SiC module with these specifications enables us to meet our transit customers’ demands for reduced size and weight of auxiliary power converters, while meeting efficiency and cost targets,” said Fisal Al-Kayal, innovation and research engineer, Alstom Belgium Transport.The module includes SiC MOSFETs and SiC Schottky diodes in a 50-mm half-bridge configuration rated to 150°C maximum junction temperature. The SiC components enable the module to be operated at exceptionally high switching frequencies that can reduce the led flood light, weight and cost of the power conversion system. The new power module has demonstrated up to 100 kHz switching frequency. Target applications include high power converters, industrial motor drives, solar inverters and uninterruptible power supplies.

“The 1200-V, 100-A dual module extends our existing discrete MOSFET and diode products into higher power applications,” explains Dr. Mrinal Das, product marketing manager, Cree Power and RF. “The efficient switching characteristics of an all-SiC module should allow system designers to meet customer demands for reduced size, weight and cost of the end-system, while reducing global energy consumption. Already, Cree SiC power devices have eliminated an estimated one million metric tons of annual CO2 emissions – the equivalent to planting 95 million trees.GE Lighting, together with its Australian partner UGL Limited, has completed the installation of LED lights at Bicentennial Park in Glebe – as part of the roll-out of a A$7 million project to replace street and park lights across the City of Sydney. The new LED lights are more energy-efficient, and exude a whiter and brighter illumination compared to conventional street and park lights.

Bicentennial Park in Glebe has become the first park in Sydney, Australia, to be installed with new GE LED lights. This is part of the roll-out of a A$7 million project secured by GE Lighting and its Australian partner UGL Limited earlier this year to replace 6,450 street and park lights in the City of Sydney over the next three years. The LED lights, produced by led high bay light and installed by UGL, emit a light which is whiter and brighter than traditional street and park lights.This revolution in lighting technology is sweeping across central Sydney to provide brighter park and street lighting while slashing electricity costs and greenhouse gas emissions. The LED lights are made up of a series of points of light or diodes, which better directs the light, and do not have a filament like traditional lights. This means they do not get hot, use far less energy, and last up to three times longer, saving on maintenance costs.
