Cable Protection in Renewable Energies: Resistant to Wind and Weather

In the renewable energy sector, cables and their protection systems are exposed to extreme conditions. Whether on land or at sea – the demands on the resistance and durability of cable protection systems are high. FLEXA offers robust cable protection hoses that withstand any weather and mechanical stress.

Challenges in Renewable Energies

Facilities for generating renewable energy, such as wind farms, biomass and waste-to-energy plants, hydropower plants, and solar power plants, are exposed to various stresses, including:

• Extreme weather conditions: Wind, rain, snow, and UV radiation can affect the lifespan and functionality of cables.
• Mechanical stresses: Pressure, tensile, and impact loads, as well as gnawing by rodents, pose a threat to the cables.
• Corrosion and abrasion: Especially in offshore facilities, cables are exposed to corrosive environments that can compromise their integrity.

FLEXA Protective Hoses: Your Solution for Maximum Safety

FLEXA offers a wide range of protective hoses specifically designed for use in renewable energies. These protective hoses are characterized by their high mechanical impact resistance and abrasion resistance. They provide reliable protection for cables in various applications, such as:

• Offshore and onshore wind farms: FLEXA protective hoses withstand the harsh conditions at sea and on land, protecting the cables from weather influences and mechanical stresses.
• Biomass and waste-to-energy plants: In these plants, cables are often exposed to aggressive chemical environments. FLEXA protective hoses offer optimal protection here.
