Energy Application Solutions
- Energy Applications – Component Solutions
Energy sources are quickly shifting toward a mix of electricity, synfuels, and hydrogen, and these are predicted to represent 32% of worldwide energy by 2035. Renewable electricity is increasing in demand as the effect on global climate becomes more prominent.
By 2050 power consumption is projected to triple, with a growing proportion being renewables and carbon-neutral fuels.
The increasing demand for power generation and transmission requires energy industry suppliers to provide equipment with next-generation clean energy technologies while transitioning away from traditional ones.
Fralock is a supplier for OEM customers in energy sectors and provides custom component solutions for a wide variety of applications. We support our customers in design, engineering, and manufacturing of custom interface parts, EMI/RFI shielding, flex circuits, and engineered ceramics for high reliability and severe environment applications.
