Renewable Energy
Driving the future of power generation – with KSB pumps and valves for renewable energy.
Renewable energy is part of the global fight against climate change. In Germany, its share of electricity generation is set to increase to 65 percent by 2030. KSB is one of the driving forces behind this development.
Sustainable climate protection requires reliable, long-lasting products
Reliability and a long service life play a particularly important role in products for the generation of renewable energy. This is because pumps and valves in this sector can be exposed to very aggressive environments. It is therefore important that systems deliver trouble-free operation at all times.
Harnessing renewable energy successfully – with products from KSB
For applications in the field of renewable energy, KSB offers particularly reliable and robust products capable of withstanding even the most adverse conditions such as salt water and salty sea air. This minimises maintenance, repair and life cycle costs. KSB pumps and valves for renewable energy thus make a valuable contribution to the optimum economic efficiency of your plant right from the outset.
KSB pumps and valves are used in almost all plants for the generation of renewable energy:
- Biomass incineration plants
- Sewage sludge incineration plants
- Waste incineration plants
- Biogas plants
- Geothermal plants
- Wind power plants
- Solar power systems
- Hydropower stations
They are employed in the primary and secondary processes of cooling water and seawater intake, fluid transport and boiler feed applications as well as in pressure booster, cleaning and fire-fighting systems.
Innovative solutions: the drive for efficient renewable energy technology
KSB pumps for renewable energy are equipped with optimised hydraulic systems and highly efficient drives that deliver first-class performance at all times for the generation of energy in renewable energy power plants.
And that is absolutely crucial! Pumps for renewable energy often handle very hot heat transfer fluids in solar power plants, pump extremely saline seawater to cool wind power plants and ensure the smooth operation of biomass power plants.
