Yaskawa Environmental Energy has invested in a rotor balancing machine for our factory in Lappeenranta. The new machine helps us meet tougher quality regulations for our customers by finding the perfect balance for their rotor.
We just have to ride the wave with our partners through market cycles and challenges in developing cutting-edge drive solutions.
In October 2007, MAN TURBO of Switzerland announced the successful factory testing of its HOFIM™ compact compressor system, a sub-sea gas compression solution that includes highly tailored basic motor technology from The Switch. This motor is part of a future-oriented project financed by the Åsgard Licence Partners in Norway to develop compression systems for the next generation of oil and gas production.
The Switch together with MAN TURBO developed the high-speed motor, based on solid rotor technology, for the compressor system that will be used in a challenging environment of uncleaned wellstream gas.
As part of the long-term strategy of Yaskawa Corporation, The Switch will become Yaskawa European’s Environmental Energy Division.
Dear friends, 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. Now more than a decade later, we can see that energy consumption simply needs to become more efficient and production more distributed…
The Switch is targeting growth of 200% within the marine segment in the next five years. Added efficiency and environmental credentials are there to ensure this.
The Switch has closed the deal to purchase Wärtsilä’s marine power drives business for megawatt-class applications.
In November, The Switch sales team participated in the EWEA 2015 Annual Event in Paris.
