Eltek Awarded Contract to Power Industrial Systems on Major European Wind Farm

Eltek has received an order from EWE Germany to supply 30 DC industrial power systems to the RIFFGAT offshore wind farm, one of Europe’s major wind power initiatives, which is located in the North Sea. Each windmill installation will have both a 24V and 48V DC power system and auxiliary system to power emergency lighting and emergency escape route lighting systems, the cathodic corrosion protection system, the loading crane on the maintenance platform and the radar container. Eltek power systems were chosen because they offer the industry’s highest performance and reliability for harsh conditions in remote offshore locations.

Eltek has a long history of supplying power solutions for control of power generation, transmission and distribution equipment, including renewable energy. The company’s Industrial Power Division is an important and fast-growing business for the company.

“This contract represents a significant milestone for Eltek’s industrial power,” said Lars Dousa, Eltek’s executive vice president responsible for industrial power. “Power utilities is a key market for us and renewable energy is an important part of our overall mission to focus on technology for a greener future.”

“This project will be an important reference for future wind farms,” Dousa continued. “Around the world there are many wind farm projects, both onshore and offshore, that will require sophisticated and highly reliable power solutions. We have the products, the expertise and the global network to support those requirements.”
