ABB has acquired ADVANTICS, a high-tech industry leader specializing in Silicon Carbide (SiC) power electronics and advanced control systems, for an undisclosed amount. This corporate acquisition sees ABB integrating ADVANTICS' specialized capabilities to strengthen its position in critical growth sectors.
ADVANTICS delivers compact, high-efficiency solutions for demanding applications across EV charging, microgrids, marine, and government sectors. The company's vehicle and station charge controllers support all major global standards, including MCS, NACS, CCS, and CHAdeMO, and are among the first to offer bi-directional power transfer (V2X). Known for products manufactured in the EU that consistently achieve 98–99% efficiency, ADVANTICS plays a role in enabling the next generation of energy infrastructure.
The acquisition is strategically significant for ABB, aligning with its focus on electrification and sustainable energy solutions. ADVANTICS' expertise in SiC technology and advanced control systems is expected to enhance ABB's existing portfolio, accelerating innovation in e-mobility and grid infrastructure. The integration will allow ABB to leverage ADVANTICS' specialized technology and high-efficiency products, complementing ABB's global reach and market presence.
This move is anticipated to create synergies that will strengthen the combined entity's ability to address the increasing demand for efficient and robust power electronics. The unified operations are poised to drive further advancements in energy management and e-mobility, contributing to a more sustainable and interconnected energy future.
