There was a design for a high voltage (~ 2 kV) SMPS in an old issue of QEX - the
ARRL's technical journal. I don't know if it is possible to search (or perhaps
even find the article online at the ARRL web site). I can't recall the exact
power level, but it was only a couple of kW or so. This was about 5 or possibly
10 years ago.
I did contemplate trying to design a larger (10 kW) SMPS, but came to the
conclusion it would be a nice thing to do if my employer was paying for the
inevitable blown up components. One can't go too far wrong with a simple
transformer/rectifier, but I think building a switch mode supply is a different
matter altogether.
