Transforming electronics for sustainable transport and energy systems
Delivering energy efficiency
We partnered with ITT and the University of Nottingham to develop the technology at the heart of the intelligent motor, which adjusts its speed in response to changing workload, lowering energy usage and CO2 emissions.
The first of its kind, the VIDAR motor drives pumps and fans in industrial settings. In installations at industrial facilities, VIDAR has lowered energy usage by half, reduced costs and increased the lifespan of equipment.
TTPi’s technology is already transforming energy efficiency in industry through the VIDAR electric smart motor, which was launched in the United States in March 2025.
Our proven technology
TTPi’s proven technology produces power-dense converters, motor drives and control systems vital to the development of ultra-efficient industrial processes, electric cars and aircraft, and the integration of renewable energy into national grids.
We work with world-leading companies, including VIDAR (ITT), Bentley, Ferrari, Advanced Electrical Machines, Infineon Technologies, National Grid ESO and magniX to deliver solutions for their next-gen products.
In 2025, TTPi will launch a state-of-the-art, bidirectional DC-to-DC power converter. It will deliver stable power transfer between sources and loads, ideal for everything from electric vehicles to renewable energy storage.
Award winning innovations
TTPi is an award-winning power electronics company, which creates ground-breaking technologies to produce state-of-the art power converters, motor drive and control systems for use in electric vehicles, renewable energy systems, green aerospace and industrial processes.
Our technologies deliver light, compact, modular units that provide world class performance and produce major savings in terms of energy, cost, size and weight, compared to anything currently available. Our goal is to transform electronics to create sustainable energy systems to power the push to Net Zero, while ensuring the electrical devices that make this possible use less of the earth’s precious resources.
