Portfolio overview

Advanced Energy Industries, Inc. has been granted 185 US utility patents between 2015 and 2025, placing Advanced Energy Industries, Inc. at rank #2,125 across all assignees tracked by PlainPatent. This portfolio spans 44 distinct Cooperative Patent Classification (CPC) subclasses, averaging 17.7 claims per patent with primary concentration in H01J (ELECTRIC DISCHARGE TUBES OR DISCHARGE LAMPS). As a US Corporation, Advanced Energy Industries, Inc. is one of the more focused assignees in the PatentsView dataset. By volume, Advanced sits between Ishida Co., Ltd. (186 patents, rank #2,121) and Fujitsu Semiconductor Limited (185 patents, rank #2,129) - the closest US assignees by grant volume. The composite Innovation Score of 64.9/100 blends portfolio volume, filing velocity, technology breadth, and claim depth into a single comparable measure drawn directly from USPTO PatentsView records.

Filing cadence tells the strategic story. Between 2020 and 2025 the company received 120 grants, compared with 65 in the 2015–2019 window, a +85% shift in five-year velocity. An acceleration of this magnitude signals aggressive R&D investment and expanding technical ambition. The US Corporation classification further shapes interpretation, since corporate, government, and individual filers pursue patents for materially different reasons.

Claim depth and technology breadth together indicate competitive posture. Advanced Energy Industries, Inc.'s 17.7 average claims per patent sits within the typical range for solid legal coverage without excessive prosecution cost, while a multi-domain presence across 44 subclasses balances depth with breadth. Combined with portfolio volume, these signals let analysts, investors, and licensing professionals benchmark Advanced Energy Industries, Inc. against peers pursuing similar technology classes.

Patent counts and the Innovation Score measure patenting activity, not commercial success or the legal strength of any patent. Many patents are filed defensively. Verify the status of an individual patent against official USPTO records.
