Leveraging Infineon’s highly efficient chip technology, a typical household in Germany can save around € 142 of their annual electricity bill 1. This is possible due to Infineon’s IGBT. Even more savings can be made in the industry. For example, recovering breaking energy in railway traction in Germany alone saves 300 GWh/year. 2
