Novos Power connects directly to 13 - 48KV utility feeds, bypassing legacy 480V step-down transformers. Our Variable Airgap Solid State Transformer (VASST) redefines SST - delivering scalable, high-density power with dynamic responsiveness to millisecond-level GPU load swings.Our technology is built on decades of DOE, CEC, NASA, and Indutry-funded research, with a foundation spanning 350+ peer-reviewed publications and issued/pending patents in power electronics and system architecture.Novos Power is co-founded by Dr. Chris Mi, a national expert in solid-state power systems, and Susan Linwood, a Stanford GSB alum and DeepTech entrepreneur—together driving a bold redefinition of how electricity flows in the AI era.
