Drives, inverters and converters

We offer a wide range of drives, inverters and converters that efficiently improve the way our customers use and produce energy.

Our offering includes low voltage AC and DC drives and medium voltage AC drives. They are used across all industries and applications. ABB drives offer application specific functionality, control for different types of motors as well as flexible connectivity to automation networks.

The experience and expertise we gained with drives led to the development of our products for solar and wind power. For photovoltaic power generation, our solar inverters offer flexible solutions, from string inverters, to larger central inverters and even complete megawatt stations. For utility scale wind turbines, our wind turbine converters are designed for all of today’s electrical drivetrain concepts.

ABB drives, inverters and converters are proven and reliable solutions backed by global production and life cycle services.

  • Reducing energy consumption in Poland

    2012-05-14: Poland’s two largest electric utilities have both selected ABB amorphous core distribution transformers to reduce energy losses in their power distribution networks. The transformers cut no-load energy losses by up to 70 percent compared to international reference standards – an energy efficiency level that is unequaled by any other type of distribution transformer.

  • Turning Lisbon’s waste into energy

    2012-04-10: An ABB variable speed drive solution has reduced the power consumption of the Valorsul waste-to-energy plant in Portugal by 9 megawatt-hours a day, equivalent to a saving of $320,000 a year at current energy prices. Valorsul processes the waste of Lisbon and much of western Portugal into valuable electrical energy, producing enough electricity to power a city of 150,000 inhabitants.

  • ABB drives and motors cut 4,000 MWh a year for Manchester Airport

    2012-04-02: A project to upgrade the Air Handling Units (AHUs) at Manchester Airport with ABB low voltage drives and ABB high-efficiency IE2 motors is saving annually 4,000 MWh, as well as cutting CO2 emissions by over 2,000 metric tons a year.
