Power is generated from a primary renewable or non-renewable source. This can include coal power, nuclear, wind, solar, hydroelectric dams, and natural gas.
Energy
Wind energy requires reliable connections to ensure power generation and data communication. Connectors are used to connect high-power components in generation facilities.
Provide a stable, secure energy grid
Some experts estimate the U.S. grid needs to expand between 50-100% in the next 10-15 years in order to keep up with increasing demand from population, manufacturing, and technology shifts.
The explosion of Artificial Intelligence, Internet of Things, cloud computing, manufacturing re-shoring, electric vehicles, and other modern technologies have put increasing strain on energy infrastructure across the globe. Advancements will only be possible if supported by safe energy grids with more robust output and uptime. HARTING's end-to-end grid connectivity solutions can help you achieve this enhanced reliability and safety from generation and transmission to distribution and storage.
End-to-end energy infrastructure solutions
ENERGY GRID INSTALLATION
Easy to get (and keep) online.
Industrial connectors reduce complexity and can help build new grids — or retrofit current grids — quickly and more cost-effectively, helping you maximize your resources.
✓ Allow for pre-assembled, plug-and-play connectivity
✓ Can be pre-tested off-site, reducing installation time and risk
✓ “Error proof” installation eliminates miswiring
✓ Lessen the need for high-skilled, hard-to-source installation labor
✓ Easier to troubleshoot failure points, replace and repair
✓ Enable smart substations and switches, allowing for remote monitor and control capabilities
ENERGY TRANSMISSION & DISTRIBUTION
Grids that stay powered up and locked down.
Controllers, sensors, and communication devices all rely on dependable connections. Meet the increasing expectations of energy consumers by reinforcing your grid with robust, continuous, secure connectivity.
✓ High-degree of IP and EMI protection
✓ Made from durable materials, like steel and non-corrosive plastics
✓ 360-degree shielding prevents exposure to the elements
✓ Secure-locking hoods limits unauthorized access
✓ Less downtime equals improved utilities customer satisfaction
RENEWABLE ENERGY
Prep your network for alternative energy sources and methods.
Beyond the buzzwords, the shift to clean, sustainable energy sources is becoming reality. From hydrogen to nuclear, wind and solar, energy providers need to adapt their grids to keep up with changing generation and consumption initiatives.
✓ Rapidly stand-up infrastructure needed to support evolving energy landscape
✓ Adaptive to new energy sources of tomorrow
✓ Modularity allows for multiple connection types and sizes within one port
✓ Fiber-optics offer next-generation option
