The latest advancements in hybrid power solutions encompassing renewable energy and energy storage, as well as innovative electric motors and drive technology, will all be on display at this year’s Electra Mining Africa under the Zest WEG brand.

“With our continued commitment to supporting our customers' decarbonisation projects, WEG aims to update the industry on cutting-edge technologies designed to reduce energy consumption and carbon footprints, while driving continuous growth and sustainability,” says WEG Africa CEO Eduardo Werninghaus.

The company will showcase its hybrid power generation solutions including solar-, wind-, gas- and diesel-powered options as well as battery energy storage systems. The WEG W23+ Ultra IE6 and WEG W22 IE4 electric motors, which promise reduced operating costs, lower noise levels and increased reliability for mines, will also be on display.

The locally assembled and tested WEG MTW05 medium voltage switchgear for voltages ranging from 2.3 kV to 36 kV will be another focus. The switchgear has been developed to meet stringent standards, including IEC 62271-200, while incorporating convenient assembly and maintenance features.

“We will also use Electra Mining Africa to engage visitors on our WEGSEE+ platform for calculating potential energy savings achievable by replacing motors, gearboxes and inverters,” Werninghaus explains. “With accurate analyses and strategic indicators, our tool generates valuable data for making smart decisions to optimise resources, again speaking to sustainability. It will also measure return-on-investment periods and evaluate the potential to avoid or reduce greenhouse-gas emissions.”
