Understanding energy and clean, green technology contract electronics services

A ‘fossil’ fuel (or energy) is a hydrocarbon-containing material such as coal, oil, and natural gas formed naturally in the Earth’s crust. Fossil fuels are formed from massive amounts of organic material such as plants, trees, birds, animals… that are swept up by water against land features. Then the materials are covered with surges of sand and muck, preventing normal decomposition from occurring, and, over eons, coal and oil is produced.

Meanwhile, ‘renewable energy’ also comes from natural resources. Some of these sources include corn stover, straw and animal waste. Electronics and electrical-based systems and platforms are used in the transition converting energy resources into forms of energy (power) used by humanity – electricity – for powering our lives.

Regardless of the energy source, all electricity-producing (energy) machinery must be fabricated from materials that are extracted. In short, no energy system is actually ‘renewable’ because all machines and equipment used in the fossil fuels industries and clean/green technology industries require continual mining and processing of millions of tons of primary materials and the replacement, and disposal, of hardware and equipment that inevitably wears out. (Read more on this here)

Nonetheless, examples of electrical-based hardware and systems and equipment designed and manufactured for use to create electricity from mining of fossil fuels, are mining equipment which can be deployed and used underground or on the surface. The type(s) of mining equipment used depends on the environment. There are three primary types of mining equipment: extraction, material handling, and material processing.

Chief challenges facing utility companies

  • Changing regulation and public attitudes and public policy to low carbon economies, regionally and globally
  • Changes in real-time energy supply and demand via innovative technologies
  • Emerging competitors in utility markets
  • Declining, little or no growth in kilowatt-hours, hobbled by initiatives for solar and energy efficiencies

Examples of fossil fuels hardware and mining equipment

Some examples of fossil fuels hardware and mining equipment include large mining trucks; hydraulic mining shovels, dozers, electric rope shovels, rotary drill rigs and rock drills, motor graders, wheel loaders, draglines, wheel tractor scrapers, and mining loaders are just a small sampling. Each example of mining equipment here requires electricity for its use and draws features and functions from printed circuit boards and systems integrated box builds that need to be designed and manufactured.

Renewable energy sources and environmental impact considerations

Power (electricity) can be created by various ‘renewable’ sources, explained below. Many renewable energy sources and production are heavily financed by new and additional government taxes and subsidies. To understand how environmental impacts might occur as a result of proceeding with one energy source, over another, it is prudent to remove the effects of higher real estate values in the area or region considered to then know how much is the environmental impact.

Solar energy
Solar energy is the most abundant on Earth. Solar technologies can produce heat and cooling, lighting, electricity and power/fuels for many other applications by converting sunlight (energy) from the Sun into electrical energy via photovoltaic (solar) panels or via mirror used for concentrating solar radiation. Some examples of electrical-based technology hardware and systems and equipment designed and manufactured for use to create electricity from solar energy include individual components used in solar panels, inverters allowing solar panels to direct energy back into electricity grids (and conversion from DC to AC) for use by most businesses and homes, power storage and batteries, among many others.

Wind energy
Wind energy electrical systems hardware and equipment can include turbine generators, which require high demands from electrical engineering. A few examples of other electrical-based technology hardware and equipment designed and manufactured for helping convert wind power into electricity include rotators and gearboxes, and wind turbine nacelles – which are complex electro-mechanical (box build) systems with components and tight precision tolerance specs for proper functionality.

Geothermal energy
Geothermal energy electrical-based hardware and systems and equipment can include geothermal heating pump furnace and electric heater units, cooling systems, distribution systems and fans, electrically driven compressors. The types of ‘systems’ for geothermal typically fall into four categories: horizontal, vertical, pond/lake, and open-loop systems.

Hydropower energy

Creating electricity from hydropower, using hardware and equipment for this purpose, involves design and manufacture of various electrical-based electromechanical equipment, hydraulic turbines, generators and voltage regulators, switchgear equipment, as well as various ancillary electrical equipment, control systems, power and current transformers, to name a few.

Ocean energy
The vast amount of energy found within ocean waves has lead engineers to design machines and equipment devices and ‘generating’ turbines that capture and use this free oceanic power and convert it to electricity. These ocean wave power machines include wave profile machines and devices, oscillating water columns, and wave capture devices. And while sea waves contain high energy densities, accessibility, maintenance and repair can be costly, with the typical efficiency of a wave energy device currently only about 30%.

Bioenergy
Creating power from bioenergy also incorporates electrical-based hardware and systems and equipment designed and manufactured for such purposes. Some of these include fuel-handling feed systems, augers and screws, gasifiers, heat exchangers, combustion and air emissions systems and controls equipment, to name a few. Fuel collection, delivery and storage at minimum costs are necessary to justify large capital investment of these projects worthy of ROI.

In the years ahead, as growth in the alternative energy sector is no longer reliant on government subsidies and policy-making cost effectiveness without those subsidies and maturing business models, improved profitability seems likely and manufacturers will also take a more aggressive stance in terms of cost cutting and more focus on budget planning and procurement.

Nuclear power

Nuclear energy
Nuclear energy is created by splitting atoms in a reactor to then heat water into steam which turns turbines that generate electricity. Some examples of electrical hardware and plant equipment designed and produced by manufacturers used in nuclear plants in the creation of electricity derived from nuclear power include electronics components, motors and electrical controls panels for the various nuclear reactor types.

These include pressurized water reactors (PWR), pressurized heavy water reactors (PHWR), boiling water reactors (BWR), light water graphite reactors (LWGR), and Gas-cooled reactors (GCR). Each of these can be further broken into equipment types: island and auxiliary.

Increasing demand for energy, combined with the need for clean electricity are anticipated to drive the nuclear market outlook. Interestingly, a solar panel farm needs 240 times more land than a small, modular nuclear reactor to produce the same amount of electricity, according to Dominion Energy.

Natural gas

Natural gas is clean-burning, inexpensive, and abundant and can help nations with natural gas resources to become energy self-sufficient, provided extraction and processing facilities and equipment are available. Natural gas is clean burning, reduces pollution and produces inexpensive electricity.

Alternative energy, electrifying and electrification

The persistent drive toward the change from mechanical to electrification of vehicles  and EVs, power packs/batteries and EV charging stations plus, other hardware and equipment sources of energy powering the automotive industry, in addition to smart grid technologies and connected devices in the Internet of Things (IoT) sector driving the confluence of smart cities, smart buildings, smart meters, and the smart grid – all of these trends will have pronounced impacts on the way we live.
