Renewable Energy
Efficient drive technology for sustainable energy systems
Dynamics and endurance in service of the energy transition
Systems used in renewable energy generation must perform reliably under demanding conditions. Whether facing wind, rain, frost, or heat – drive technology must operate dependably with minimal maintenance. At the same time, modern energy systems require precise tracking, stable positioning, and high energy efficiency – often in continuous operation and remote locations. This calls for robust, intelligent drive solutions.
Compact, weatherproof drives with intelligent control
SPAT® provides customized drive solutions designed to meet the specific challenges of renewable energy systems. Our compact drives are available in corrosion-resistant, rugged designs and can be equipped with stainless steel housings, IP65 protection, or specialized sealing systems. With integrated control and fieldbus capability, they enable precise, remotely monitored operation – ideal for solar tracking, flap adjustment, filtration systems, and more.
SPAT® drives in use for tracking, control, and regulation
Our drives deliver precise performance in solar thermal tracking systems, PV array positioning, wind power components, and environmental systems such as air filtration stations. They support predictive maintenance, are fieldbus-compatible (e.g. CANopen), and can be easily integrated into existing control architectures – making them the ideal choice for operators who value durability and intelligent system integration.
