At Central Wire Group of Companies, we are proud to serve industries that promote sustainability and limit carbon emissions. Our continued innovation in manufacturing for this industry reflects our dedication to creating a greener, more resilient world for generations to come.
From structural components, to maximizing filtration efficiency to welding repairs, our products help support key functions of various Renewable Energy applications. These industries rely on materials that can withstand repeated use, a variety of weather challenges, and in certain sectors high-pressure and moisture atmospheres.
Continue reading below to see the many Renewable Energy sectors that our product lines serve, and to learn about how our manufacturing helps promote and establish a sustainable future and create clean energy.
Renewable Energy Sources
Across this industry, there are many sectors which contribute to a greener future and to limiting carbon emissions. Each sector presents different challenges, putting pressure on materials to perform. Let’s take a look at the main areas where our products are found.
Wind Energy
One of the most common forms of Renewable Energy, wind energy has consistently gotten more prevalent and efficient. The growth of this sector puts extreme importance on the performance and durability of the materials used to construct and repair wind turbines.
Most onshore wind turbines have a capacity of 2-3 megawatts, which can produce over 6 kilowatt hours (kwh) of electricity every year. As this is enough to meet the electricity demand of around 1,500 average households, many people rely on the efficiency and performance of this sector.
Bar Stock, CNC Parts, and Shaped Wire can all be found making up the small but crucial structural components of wind turbines. Shafts, bearings, hubs, fasteners and more which keep turbines running effectively can be precisely manufactured from our custom product lines.
Demister Pads, or Mist Eliminators, can also be used in wind turbines to separate any entrained moisture or droplets from the airflow, ensuring only dry air enters the system. This prevents condensation and potential corrosion by keeping the air dry, which is crucial for longevity and reliable operation.
All our parts within this industry must be able to withstand the environmental challenges present in wind farms as well as high mechanical loads. The corrosion resistance, durability and customization capabilities of these product lines ensure performance is consistent no matter the conditions.
Solar Energy
Alongside wind energy, solar energy is also becoming extremely efficient and growing in popularity. This sector is relatively new compared to wind in terms of its popularity; however, an estimated 4.2 million American homes are equipped with solar panels in 2024.
This energy sector’s growth and performance relies on efficiency and consistency, especially as the amount of power that can be drawn from solar panels is determined by the changes in sunlight.
One of the areas in which our products contribute to solar energy is in components of solar tracking systems. These systems are designed to move the panels in a way where they can continuously face the sun with the aim of maximizing energy drawing and production.
The framework and mechanical components that allow these systems to work at their best can be manufactured from our premium Bar Stock or CNC parts, which ensure the necessary stability and durability to keep panels secure and directed at the sun to maximize energy production.
Along with structural parts, our Generation4™ Welding Wire can also be used to make long-lasting repairs to both turbines and solar panels. Our Welding Wire performs when the highest levels of quality and safety are required and produces welds that can withstand harsh industry conditions.
