The electricity loads being served by today’s alternating current (AC) power
grids are increasingly natively direct current (DC), at the end-use level.
In fact, according to some estimates, approximately 80 percent of the power
loads in commercial and residential structures are now DC. Along with the
broad political and policy support for inverter-based native DC power sources,
this is leading many industry players to conclude that it makes inherent sense
to reduce DC-AC-DC conversion losses and integrate DC distribution networks into
the power supply infrastructure. According to a new report from Navigant Research, the total
worldwide capacity of DC distribution networks will surpass 2.3 gigawatts (GW)
by 2025, up from just 196 megawatts (MW) in 2013.
