Power generation

The ecological transition means we need to produce electricity more efficiently and responsibly, making sustainable use of the power provided by natural resources (water, steam, wind, sun). The needs associated with this transition, as well as our evolving lifestyles, are leading us to consume ever more electrical energy. Copper has always played a major, long-term role in the implementation of major electrical generation projects.

Our copper at the heart of your power generation projects.

The equipment used in major power generation projects places high demands on quality, logistics and service. For several decades now, we have been organizing ourselves to meet these specific needs, making this segment a pillar of our expertise. With the establishment of a workshop dedicated to generator products and rotating machines, and the development of new copper alloys, we can offer you a wide range of tailor-made products. We can help you meet your needs for pole rods, rotor rods installed at the heart of alternators connected to turbines, and connection rods for generators.

Co-development of busbars for batteries and motors

Vehicle and locomotive busbars have to be constantly rethought in terms of cross-sections, shapes and materials to meet safety and energy performance requirements.

Multiphysics software for copper cross-section optimization

Copper, crucial to the energy and digital transition, is used in power generation, power supplies and vehicles. With demand set to double in 5 years, busbars need to be rethought to reduce copper usage while maintaining their performance and durability.

Upcycling - virtuous recycling of copper scrap

Copper is essential for the energy and digital transition, with the European objective of 25% recycled materials by 2030. Strong demand is coming from the electricity and transport sectors. The Gindre Group and Montanwerke Brixlegg, both active in recycling, already comply with environmental standards.
