FSE Holds Seminar on Hydraulic Solutions in Shanghai

Fritz Schur Energy A/S held a successful seminar on advanced hydraulic system solutions for large-scale wind turbines in Shanghai on 14 June, 2011. Representatives from Sinovel, Sany Electric, Geoho Energy, Huayi Wind Energy, Changxing Wind Energy, CSC, etc. attended this event.

The seminar focused on the functionality and advantages of hydraulic pitch control, designing and calculation tools for hydraulic pitch systems, as well as hydraulic solutions most suitable for Chinese wind farms.

Soren Ronnow Poulsen, FSE Director of Sales Asia, began the seminar with a welcome speech and a brief introduction to FSE. The company is a member of Fritz Schur Group established in 1846. It has been engaged in hydraulic system solutions for wind energy for over 25 years. Today more than 8000 wind turbines (incl. Over 500 offshore ones) are up and running with hydraulic solutions from FSE. Customers like Siemens Wind Power and Nordex have for years benefitted from its cutting-edge technologies and reliable solutions.

FSE R&D engineer Peter Windfeld Rasmussen talked about the advantages of hydraulic pitch system for wind turbines, such as high reliability and availability, fast response time, less space and weight, no oil leakage and so on. Later on, Mr. Rasmussen elaborated on how FSE ensures reliable performance of its hydraulic solutions against harsh environments, such as extreme low temperature, sand storm, dust, salt mist, etc.

During the Q&A session, Mr. Rasmussen answered questions raised by the audience. The panel had an in-depth discussion and exchange of views. The delegates reached unanimous agreement that hydraulic system for wind turbines possesses many advantages over electrical control system and should be further promoted in China.

Afterwards, various interactive activities were launched to enhance friendship between the delegates and facilitate goodwill communication.

“Fritz Schur Energy launched its global strategy in 2009 and we set China as one of our most important target markets. Hydraulic technology has many strong points and is employed by most world-class turbine manufacturers. We believe it is sure to enjoy rapid development around the globe,” said Mr. Poulsen.
