Busbars save energy in primary industries

10. March 2025

Energy for raw materials

The Primary Industry, which includes energy-intensive processes such as the extraction and processing of raw materials, faces major challenges. In addition to fluctuating raw material prices and increasing competitive pressure, energy costs play a decisive role in the profitability and future viability of companies. Legal requirements, rising energy costs and the desire for greater sustainability are forcing companies to optimise their processes and minimise energy losses.

For energy-intensive processes

Primary industry specialized electrical components

Optimized for high currents

As a manufacturer of busbars and busbar systems, we are increasingly engineering customised solutions to meet the growing demand for energy efficiency. These are tailored to the specific requirements of the various primary industries.

In most cases, particular attention is paid to reducing electrical resistance and optimising heat dissipation. Engineering modular busbar systems also makes it possible to flexibly adapt to different requirements and simplifies the installation and expansion of the systems.

DC for 10,000 to 300,000 Amps

When DC currents of 10,000 to 300,000 amperes are required, our IndustryBars are often used. These industrial busbars have been specially engineered for demanding industrial environments. IndustryBars, also known as high-performance busbars, PowerBars or Busducts, are made of highly conductive materials such as copper Cu-ETP or Aluminum. Since the environmental conditions in the Primary Industry tend to be aggressive, corrosion-resistant coatings are also used to increase the service life of the components. These individual solutions are engineered in close collaboration with our customers on a project-specific basis, e.g. for chlorine electrolysis with 18,000 amps or aluminum electrolysis with 180,000 amps.

Modular = Vision®Bar

Our Vision®Bars are modular busbar systems that can be assembled from individual segments to provide a flexible and adaptable power distribution solution for industrial plants. They are characterised by a high current-carrying capacity, a compact design and a robust construction and can carry 1,200 to 10,000 amperes.

Thanks to the unique combination of fixed and flexible components, Vision®Bar can also be adapted to a wide range of installation conditions.

Your benefits

The use of busbars enables companies to significantly reduce their energy costs by minimizing energy losses, increasing plant efficiency, contributing to sustainability by reducing CO₂ emissions and increasing their competitiveness by using energy-efficient technologies.
