Navitas (NASDAQ:NVTS) specializes in advanced semiconductor solutions. The company has taken the lead in important areas. These include industrial applications, solar inverters, EV chargers and AI-based data centers. Higher efficiency and power capabilities in these industries have been made possible largely by adopting their Gen-3 Fast silicon carbide and GaN (gallium nitride) technology.

For instance, improvements in the company’s GaNSafe technology will allow clients to raise the efficiency of the server power supply from 96% to 97% by the end of the year. The company wants to reach 8 to 10 kilowatt capacity. 

Additionally, in several areas and sectors, Navitas has greatly increased the number of its clients and the pipeline of projects. Partnerships with significant organizations such as Alphabet’s (NASDAQ:GOOG, GOOGL) Google, Microsoft (NASDAQ:MSFT) Azure, Amazon (NASDAQ:AMZN) AWS, and top automakers for electric vehicle (EV) applications are examples of specific engagements. Since December 2023, the pipeline of possible EV-related projects has risen by more than 50%, with $400 million in deals.

To sum up, Navitas’ lead in these high-growth sectors to benefit from the global push towards energy efficiency and electrification makes it a compelling choice among top stocks to buy.
