“Renewable Energy: A Sustainable Driver of the Copper Industry”

Overview

The world economy is on the track for a low-carbon and sustainability-focused growth mode, an increasing number of nations around the world are adopting clean energy as a priority for their energy strategies.

 

Cities, major energy consumers, need to prioritize reducing environmental impact while increasing renewable energy resources utilizing existing infrastructure. Renewable energy sources provide nearly one-quarter of the world’s power. In many renewable energy systems, more copper is being used than in traditional systems to ensure efficiency.

 

With outstanding conductivity only second to silver, copper can significantly enhance the efficiency of electrical equipment, making it an indispensable component in developing renewable energy. Moreover, it is one of the few materials that can be recycled 100 percent over and over again without a loss in performance. Copper is truly suitable for serving a low-carbon economy.

 

This preference is set to continue with copper being used in major energy storage projects, an area expected to grow continuously. Compared to conventional greenhouse gas-producing thermal electricity generation, renewables generally consume much larger volumes of copper. OC-ETP® products namely copper busbar, profiles, and fabricated copper solutions are widely used in renewable-energy power-generation systems. We are currently serving our clients who are major leaders in renewable energy applications such as solar, wind, and hydro generators.

 

OC-ETP® copper has the highest thermal and electrical conductivity performance. It helps to reduce electrical energy and heat transfer losses and improves energy efficiency. As a result, the best copper conductors can reduce lifetime operating costs ultimately. OC-ETP® products tend to operate more efficiently and reliably for the sustainable renewable energy industry.

 

In the context of the energy transition, copper conductors are widely used in many applications in power sectors, high efficient copper conductors appear to be criticality important. Therefore, Oriental Copper tries to integrate our gained experience, well-trained expertise, and state-of-the-art technology in our long-term business model to respond to various requirements of our business partners during this future energy transition. It is our mission to promote and push this transition towards sustainability.
