Wind power plants

The expansion of wind energy, or wind power plant operations, is a global trend, resulting in significant growth in wind power solutions. KSB's wind power pumps and valves, designed specifically for offshore applications, are built to withstand harsh maritime conditions for many years. KSB provides a comprehensive range of high-quality components for cooling as well as various applications within wind turbines, ensuring dependable performance.

Fresh wind for clean energy: KSB's wind power solutions for onshore and offshore installations

As a leading source of renewable energy, wind power calls for pumps that ensure reliable and economical operation of wind power plants over the long term. Minimizing investment and maintenance costs is critical, requiring all components to perform efficiently and reliably, particularly in the harsh marine environments of offshore wind farms.

KSB pumps and valves are used in cooling circuits, fire extinguishing systems, cleaning systems and offshore installations for seawater extraction used for cooling purposes in wind turbines.

The challenge is that these pumps and valves for wind power applications are not easily accessible at sea, complicating maintenance and repair work. It is therefore essential that each product is precisely chosen and engineered for specific requirements to ensure trouble-free operation as far as possible.

For instance, KSB's submersible motor pumps for seawater extraction are specifically tailored to function flawlessly in corrosive environments, thereby extending their service life. Collaborating closely with leading research institutes, KSB develops new materials and technologies. We also customise components to provide our customers with perfectly suited products – pumps and valves that balance low life cycle costs with high efficiency in wind power plants.
