GREEN POWER TECHNOLOGIES SL
Spanish SME specializing in power electronics, GaN semiconductors, and energy management platforms for grid flexibility and storage applications.
Their core work
Green Power Technologies is a Spanish SME specializing in power electronics and energy management systems. They develop compact power conversion solutions built on advanced semiconductor technologies, particularly GaN (Gallium Nitride), and apply these to energy storage, grid flexibility, and building energy systems. Their work spans from semiconductor pilot lines to full-scale energy platform integration, bridging the gap between advanced materials research and real-world energy applications.
What they specialise in
Participated in PowerBase for GaN packaging and pilot lines, and R3-PowerUP for 300mm smart power pilot lines — both focused on compact, high-efficiency power components.
SENSIBLE addressed building-level energy storage, OSMOSE tackled system-level grid flexibility, and REFLEX explored reversible solid oxide cells for local energy optimization.
Coordinated GPBOX, their own energy platform product, indicating in-house platform development capability beyond component-level work.
OSMOSE and REFLEX both address integrating variable renewable sources into energy systems through flexibility solutions and reversible electrochemical conversion.
How they've shifted over time
In their earlier H2020 work (2015–2016), Green Power Technologies focused heavily on semiconductor hardware — GaN pilot lines, compact power component packaging, and foundational energy storage for buildings. From 2017 onward, their focus shifted toward system-level energy challenges: grid flexibility, energy transition market design, and reversible electrolyzer/fuel cell systems. This evolution suggests a deliberate move up the value chain from power components to integrated energy system solutions.
Green Power Technologies is moving from component-level power electronics toward full energy system integration, positioning them well for projects addressing grid decarbonization and sector coupling.
How they like to work
Predominantly a project participant (5 of 6 projects), with one coordination of their own product-stage SME instrument project (GPBOX). They operate comfortably in large consortia — 138 unique partners across 22 countries indicates broad collaborative reach rather than a tight circle of repeat partners. This makes them an accessible, experienced consortium member who integrates well with diverse teams.
With 138 unique consortium partners across 22 countries, Green Power Technologies has built an extensive European network spanning most of the continent. Their partnerships bridge the semiconductor/electronics industry with the energy sector, giving them connections in both domains.
What sets them apart
Green Power Technologies occupies a rare niche: they understand both the semiconductor fabrication side (GaN materials, pilot lines, power discretes) and the energy system application side (storage, grid flexibility, hydrogen). This dual competence makes them valuable in projects that need someone to translate between component-level innovation and real-world energy deployment. As a Spanish SME with their own product development (GPBOX platform), they bring entrepreneurial agility alongside deep technical capability.
