Innovation that Drives Industry
EWI helps renewables and power generation manufacturing clients hone a competitive edge by developing and deploying advanced manufacturing technologies that directly resolve industry-specific dilemmas.
Meeting Solar Energy Challenges
With rising demands for renewables like solar at a lower cost, energy-sector manufacturers must find ways to scale economically. Responding to these demands, our client GreenField Solar developed a radical approach to solar, combining proprietary cell technology with an innovative CPV system design. But material costs and assembly line times were far too high, and the product was not reliable.
Read about our work with GreenField Solar to see how EWI engineers applied our knowledge of electrical interconnects and material science to provide a cost-effective welding solution.
Finding Solutions for Nuclear Manufacturing
Nuclear energy systems require large, heavy components with strict tolerance and quality requirements. Therefore, exploring new innovations in this field can be high risk and costly. To mitigate risk, cost, and inefficiencies, EWI draws from our expertise in nondestructive evaluation (NDE) and modeling processes.
Learn how EWI helped Babcock and Wilcox Company ‒ Nuclear Operations Group find an effective, economical resolution to a cracking found issue they repeatedly experienced during the cladding and buttering process.
EWI engineers help redefine the limits of energy technologies, helping manufacturers meet regulatory requirements and rising demands for cleaner energy production, lower costs, and efficient storage. See what EWI can do for your organization.
