About Us
SCiBreak is a Swedish company founded in 2014 to commercialize new technology for interrupting electric current. Our technology allows for interruption of high AC or DC currents with high returning voltage within a few milliseconds. Conventional AC breakers need several tens of milliseconds to break and existing DC breakers for high voltage are generally very costly. The parts cost of breakers based on the concept is considerably lower than that of competing solutions.
Our roots are in many ways at KTH Royal Institute of Technology in Stockholm where many of us have worked and studied.
SCiBreak is collaborating with EIT InnoEnergy
