B-TRAN will be the first product line for which Kaimei will operate as a third-party distributor.

For decades, Kaimei has manufactured high-value-added electronic components, selling them in 60 countries in Asia, Europe, and the Americas.

The company said that Kaimei and Ideal Power ( IPWR ) share many target markets, including industrial, automotive, renewable energy, energy storage, UPS, and EV charging.
