Reliable connections for a greener future

Accessories for renewable power applications

The transition towards renewable energy is very much dependent on the capability to transmit power from where clean energy is produced to where it is consumed or stored. Thus, the energy transition demands expanding the grid much further with respect to the present situation. Choosing the right component is critical to any grid. And criticalities increase even more when it comes to wind and Solar PV applications. Our accessories are vital to connect power systems and support the development of efficient, reliable, and safe power grids. Our technical sales teams will help you select the right component for your application. For special requests, our engineering and R&D teams will develop the right product to ensure safety and continuity of service.
