Acquisition brings solid-state transformer tech to EV market

By Michelle Froese | July 17, 2025

Intelligent power management company Eaton announced that it signed an agreement to acquire Resilient Power Systems, a North American developer and manufacturer of energy solutions, including solid-state transformer-based technology.

“Resilient’s medium-voltage solid-state transformers are a next-generation solution in high-power, direct current (DC) applications in the electric vehicle (EV) market – and there’s a huge opportunity for future applications in data centers, port electrification, and battery energy storage,” said Mike Yelton, president, Americas Region, Electrical Sector.

Resilient Power Systems Inc., based in Austin, Texas and backed by venture capital firms including Energy Transition Ventures, develops and manufactures innovative energy solutions that rewrite the electric grid. Today, its line of ultra-compact EV charging depots connects directly to the existing distribution grid, allowing clients to deploy EV fleets and public charging stations quickly and efficiently.

In the future, Resilient’s highly differentiated technology will have additional application potential for data centers, enabling customers to increase power density and revenue generation.

“Resilient’s medium voltage solid-state transformers are a next-generation solution in high-power, direct current (DC) applications in the electric vehicle (EV) market – and there’s huge opportunity for future applications in data centers, port electrification and battery energy storage,” said Mike Yelton, president, Americas Region, Electrical Sector.

The transaction, which is subject to customary closing conditions, is expected to close in the third quarter of 2025.

By capitalizing on the global growth trends of electrification and digitalization, Eaton is working to helpsolve the world’s most urgent power management challenges and building a more sustainable society.
