Against the backdrop of the global energy structure transformation and the continuous upgrading of industrial production, renewable energy projects and heavy industry operations have increasingly stringent requirements for power solutions. Both renewable energy projects that generate electricity by relying on natural forces and the heavy industry sector engaged in high-intensity production require strong and reliable power support. With its profound accumulation in the field of transformers and substations, Tenrony provides customized solutions that accurately meet the specific needs of these demanding applications, ensuring their efficient operation and minimizing downtime, thus becoming a trustworthy power partner in both fields.
Key Power Challenges Faced by Renewable Energy and Heavy Industry
Renewable energy projects and heavy industry operations are in different environments and have different production characteristics, so the power challenges they face also vary.
In the field of renewable energy, the intermittency of power generation is the primary problem. Solar energy is affected by day and night and weather, and wind energy is restricted by changes in wind speed. This unstable power generation characteristic brings great challenges to the stable output of electricity. Grid integration is also full of difficulties. How to smoothly connect these scattered and fluctuating electric energies to the existing power grid and avoid impacting the stability of the power grid is a common problem in the industry. In addition, many renewable energy projects are located in remote areas, and long-distance transmission will lead to increased power loss and reduced energy utilization efficiency. At the same time, these projects are often exposed in the wild and need to cope with extreme weather conditions such as high temperature, severe cold, heavy rain, and typhoons, which put extremely high requirements on the durability and reliability of power equipment.
In the field of heavy industry, high power demand is a prominent feature. Large equipment such as blast furnaces and rolling mills in steel plants, crushers and hoists in mining operations all need huge power support. Once the power supply is insufficient or interrupted, it will directly affect the production progress. The production environment of heavy industry is usually harsh. Factors such as high temperature, dust, vibration, and corrosive gases will accelerate the aging and damage of power equipment. Moreover, heavy industry production often needs to operate continuously. Any shutdown caused by a power failure may result in huge economic losses, so minimizing downtime is crucial. In addition, there are dense personnel and numerous equipment on the heavy industry site, so ensuring electrical safety is the basic premise to ensure the smooth progress of production and the safety of personnel's lives.
Tenrony's Targeted Solutions
In response to the different power challenges of renewable energy and heavy industry, Tenrony has customized a series of efficient and reliable solutions.
In terms of renewable energy, Tenrony provides transformers specially designed for renewable energy applications. These transformers can adapt to the intermittent characteristics of renewable energy power generation, effectively adjust voltage and current, and realize the stable output of electric energy. To solve the problem of grid integration, Tenrony has launched solutions for grid integration. Through advanced control technology and energy storage coordination functions, it realizes the smooth connection between renewable energy and the power grid and reduces the impact on the power grid. At the same time, a robust design is adopted, with weather-resistant materials and protective processes, so that the equipment can operate stably for a long time under extreme weather conditions and ensure the continuous power generation of the project.
In terms of heavy industry, Tenrony's large-capacity transformers can meet the high power demand of heavy industry, provide a stable power supply for large equipment, and ensure the continuity of production. Based on the production processes and equipment characteristics of different industries, Tenrony provides solutions customized for specific industrial processes, optimizes power configuration, and improves energy utilization efficiency. In addition, it is equipped with a powerful protection system, including overcurrent protection, overvoltage protection, short-circuit protection, etc., which can quickly respond to power failures, avoid equipment damage, and production interruption. The application of redundant power supply systems provides backup power support for key equipment. When the main power supply fails, it can switch quickly to minimize downtime. At the same time, the equipment design fully considers the harsh environment of heavy industry and has good dustproof, moisture-proof, anti-corrosion, and anti-vibration capabilities.
Case Studies: Practical Effects of Tenrony's Solutions
Renewable Energy Project Case: Stable Power Guarantee for Wind Farms
A large wind farm is located in a coastal area, which is affected by typhoons and strong winds all year round. Moreover, the intermittency of wind power generation leads to large fluctuations in power output, which brings great difficulties to grid integration.
Tenrony provided transformers specially designed for renewable energy applications and grid integration solutions for the wind farm. The customized transformers have excellent anti-fluctuation ability, which can adjust the power output in real-time according to the change of wind speed and convert unstable wind energy into stable electric energy. The grid integration solution realizes the precise dispatching and smooth access of wind power through the intelligent control system linked with the wind farm's monitoring system and the grid dispatching center. At the same time, the transformer adopts a robust sealing design and anti-corrosion materials, which can resist the high humidity, high salt environment in coastal areas, and typhoons and other extreme weather.
Since the project was put into operation, the stability of the power output of the wind farm has been significantly improved. After being connected to the power grid, it has not caused an obvious impact on the power grid, which has been highly recognized by the power grid company. Even in typhoon weather, the equipment can operate normally, effectively ensuring the power generation efficiency of the wind farm. Compared with traditional solutions, power loss has been reduced by 12%, and a large amount of clean electricity can be transmitted to the power grid every year.
Heavy Industry Project Case: Continuous Power Support for Steel Plants
A large steel plant has a large amount of equipment in its production workshop, with huge power demand. The production environment is high temperature and dusty, which has extremely high requirements for the reliability and durability of power equipment. Previously, shutdown accidents caused by power equipment failures occurred from time to time, bringing no small losses to the enterprise.
Tenrony provided large-capacity transformers and customized power solutions for the steel plant. The large-capacity transformers provide sufficient and stable power for large equipment such as blast furnaces and rolling mills, meeting the high power demand. In view of the high temperature and dusty environment of the steel plant, the transformer adopts a special heat dissipation design and an efficient filtering system to ensure that the equipment can dissipate heat and operate normally in harsh environments. The powerful protection system can monitor the operation status of the equipment in real-time. Once an abnormality occurs, it will immediately start the protection mechanism to avoid the expansion of the fault. The redundant power supply system provides double power guarantee for the key steelmaking link.
After the solution was put into use, the power failure rate of the steel plant has been reduced by 80%, the downtime has been reduced by more than 90%, and the production efficiency has been greatly improved. The durability of the equipment has also been fully verified. It can still maintain stable operation in a high-temperature and dusty environment, greatly reducing the equipment maintenance cost.
Whether it is the challenges of unstable power generation and harsh environments in renewable energy projects, or the requirements of high power demand and continuous operation in heavy industry, Tenrony can provide reliable power support with professional customized solutions. If your project is also facing similar power problems, Tenrony will provide you with practical solutions to help your project operate efficiently and stably.
