About Us

Scibreak is a Swedish company founded in 2014 by Lennart Ängquist and Staffan Norrga 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 has a young and highly capable team of engineers working with research, development, and marketing. The work we do spans from plasma physics, via power electronics and embedded systems to power system fault analysis.

In 2017 Scibreak moved into new facilities in Kallhäll, 20 km north of Stockholm. The 200 m2 space is functioning as a combined head office and workshop.

 

Scibreak is collaborating with EIT InnoEnergy.
