ELECTRIFIED FOR TODAY’S PERFORMANCE AND TOMORROW'S EFFICIENCY
A SMARTER WAY TO DRIVE CRITICAL APPLICATIONS
<p>Chemical, oil and gas operators face growing pressure to improve efficiency, reduce emissions and modernize aging assets without introducing new risks to performance, reliability or uptime.</p> <p>Turbine-2-Electric (T2E) replaces the turbine driver with an engineered electric drivetrain. ABB brings together the motor and variable-speed drive, with transformers and the wider electrical scope as required, to create a solution around the application's operating profile, process requirements and site conditions.</p> <p> </p>
