Change record

What changed

  • The October 21 agreement covers more than 1 GW of manufacturing capacity for Heron's solid-state transformer.
  • Heron targets more than 98.5% medium-voltage-to-800-VDC efficiency with integrated storage; deployment timing and commissioned site output were not disclosed.

Public interpretation

Why it matters

The agreement moves 800 VDC from a reference-architecture discussion into reserved manufacturing capacity. Site delivery, interconnection, commissioning and energized load remain the binding proof.
