The OCP Solid State Transformer Specification (Rev 0.3.0, effective 2026-06-22; authors Google, Microsoft, NVIDIA) requires at least 98% efficiency between 50% and 100% utilization, counting power-train loss only.

≥98%observed

Value kindobserved — Reported measurements, counts, and specifications keep the precision and scope stated by their source; an exact specification is not treated as a range.
ScopeA requirement in a black-box specification, not a measured or certified product result. Power-train loss only (auxiliaries excluded). Same spec: 5 MW at 13.8 kV, 5/10 MW at 34.5 kV; 800 VDC unipolar output, floating or HRG with detection; overload settings recommended at 150% for 150 ms and 120% for 5 s.
