In this blog post, we discuss what immense benefits PM generators bring to ships, compared to traditional technologies.
Dear friends! The Switch has come far as the result of hard work and reached several new milestones over the past few months. Together with one of our partners, MHI Vestas Offshore Wind, we’re pioneering the leading trends in offshore by moving toward more powerful turbines. Our own permanent magnet generator is a key component…
When The Switch was founded, we based our entire business idea on the fact that we wanted to help people change how they use electricity and choose how electricity is produced. So what about now?
Wind power has crossed the 500 GW milestone – Global Wind Day 2017.
The year is approaching its end, but it has been very eventful. We have returned to our strong growth path. The hard work with you – our customers, partners and other stakeholders – has turned into solid business.
WE Tech and The Switch announce the operational success at sea of their first direct-drive permanent magnet shaft generator solution.
Runtech placed a multi-million-euro order with The Switch for turbo motors to be used in their vacuum pump systems.
Yaskawa Electric Corporation is celebrating its 100th anniversary.
Now is the time to make the switch in the shipping industry. And we at The Switch are ramping up our efforts to spread the word about how we can liberate ships from the burden of outdated technology. Now the players in the marine value chain can profit from embracing the latest electrical drive trains…
The way uneven power requirement is experienced on ships is just the same as it is on land. But how to handle this grid stability issue efficiently at sea?
The Switch has received repeat orders worth several millions of euros from major customers in the company’s core business area of wind. These repeat orders signal a strong belief in the company and provide a solid order backlog as The Switch continues to advance drive train technology under new ownership of Japan-based Yaskawa.
