Magnetic components are the silent heroes in energy systems. At MPS Industries, we design and manufacture magnetics for energy industry applications with care and precision. Our range of transformers, inductors, and chokes is built to improve efficiency and reliability across solar, wind, and traditional power systems as well as newer battery storage technologies. Each component is crafted to match the specific needs of power generation, distribution, transmission, storage, and conversion.
Supporting the Future of Clean Energy
The shift toward clean energy brings unique challenges to power systems. Off-the-shelf components often fail to meet these demands. That’s why MPS Industries develops custom magnetic components that support smooth energy conversion and steady system performance.
Utilizing advanced core materials and construction designs, our components help reduce energy losses and enhance magnetic field strength, which is crucial for renewable systems that require precision and consistency. These improvements translate to high-performance transformers and inductors for power distribution and better efficiency for renewable energy systems.
Applications in Wind, Solar, and Storage
Our power generation magnetic components benefit renewable energy sectors in the following applications:
- Wind turbines. Used in converters and pitch systems, custom transformers and inductors help manage changes in wind speed for stable electricity output.
- Solar inverters. High-performance magnetics convert DC to AC cleanly for smooth grid integration.
- Battery storage. Chokes and inductors maintain healthy battery charge and discharge cycles, supporting reliable energy storage.
These applications demonstrate why custom inductors for energy systems are crucial for modern renewable infrastructure.
Benefits of Custom Magnetics in Renewable Power
Powder Core Material Benefits
Powder cores are air gap cores commonly used in DC inductors or switch-mode power supply (SMPS) output filters. Other applications include boost, buck, and differential inductors, all of which benefit from these powder core properties:
- High resistivity
- Low hysteresis and eddy current losses
- Stable inductance under both DC and AC loads
- No binder material in certain designs, preventing long-term heat aging
- Available in toroids, blocks, cylinders, and other special shapes
These properties make powder cores an excellent fit for custom assemblies in clean energy devices.
Durability in Challenging Settings
Renewable energy systems are frequently deployed in challenging and unpredictable environments, which can significantly impact their performance and longevity. For instance, offshore wind farms are continuously exposed to harsh conditions, including the corrosive effects of saltwater, strong winds, and varying temperatures. Similarly, solar installations located in desert regions face extreme heat, sandstorms, and high levels of ultraviolet (UV) radiation.
To ensure that these systems operate reliably and efficiently under such demanding circumstances, it is essential to design magnetic components with a focus on durability and resilience. At MPS Industries, we work closely with our customers to create advanced magnetic solutions for grid infrastructure that are tailored to overcome these challenges. Our product offerings include encapsulated and potted magnetic components that safeguard internal windings from moisture, dust, and UV exposure.
To support long-term performance and safety, we also integrate thermistors and temperature sensors into our products where needed. These tools enable real-time thermal monitoring and reduce the risk of overheating or unexpected failure. By combining rugged construction, advanced materials, and active protection features, our magnetic components offer the resilience needed for demanding clean energy installations.
