Composite bearing technology provides solar and wind energy applications

 An early glimpse, 2013 Annual Energy Outlook U.S. Energy Information Administration said, from increasing renewable energy generation is expected to account for 32 percent of total domestic electricity generation growth from 2011-2040. This insight and reporting, global economic growth forecast from the mind of renewable energy financial and market analysts, Saint-Gobain Performance Plastics today announced composite bearings in the renewable energy market applications strategic initiatives.

    In the Saint-Gobain composit backing bearings designed to withstand the harsh vibration, bearing tolerance ring group to improve efficiency, scalability and lower solar and wind turbine applications running time. As a renewable energy market strategic focus part of Saint-Gobain increased industrial design engineering technology, global marketing manager, Edward and his team rumble. His extensive experience in design and engineering, rumble will lead more and more efforts to develop solar and wind energy applications for the next generation of composite bearings.

    Renewable energy, solar and wind energy through innovative technology driven, will prove to be sustainable power generation in the future, say. Help today's and tomorrow's leaders in the renewable energy production, we are committed to the original equipment manufacturer providing innovative solutions that improve the efficiency of solar and wind energy applications.

    For the solar market, Saint-Gobain produces innovative, maintenance-free composite bearings. In solglide? Composite bearing special fluorine compound to increase the long-term operating efficiency solar equipment to reduce energy use and reduce long-term costs. solglide? composite bearings are specifically designed for concentrating solar power (CSP) plants, for all major fulcrum of the tracking system. Rumble and his team design engineering experts are currently working on large-scale CSP projects bearing provides innovative composite configuration higher performance.

    For the wind turbine market, 2013 will see a series of composite bearing solutions from Saint-Gobain's introduction. Our team of application engineers are developing applications for the new generation of wind turbine composite bearing technology, say. Composite bearings can withstand that occurs in wind turbine applications while reducing downtime for business, bad vibrations. This is Saint-Gobain in providing solutions that improve the next step in renewable energy production.

    Saint-Gobain operation in sustainable development efforts are also made significant progress. U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) recently admitted that Saint-Gobain with 2013 Energy Star Award for Excellence continued energy leadership continued the third consecutive year. Last year, the company achieved energy saving three percent, representing not more than 82 tons of carbon dioxide emissions
