It is necessary not only to have gold and silver, but also to green waters and green mountains. In recent years, environmental protection has become the focus of the country and even the world. Clean energy, with its unique environmental protection advantages, has come to the foreground and has become an important driving force to promote the progress of human civilization.
In particular, wind energy, since the "Eleventh Five-Year Plan", after more than ten years, has completed the leapfrog large-scale development from small to large, from weak to strong, and has now become the third largest power source in China after thermal power and hydropower. The development of wind power has become the core content of China's energy transition and an important way to respond to climate change, as well as an important means for China to further promote the revolution of energy production and consumption and promote the prevention and control of air pollution.
Affordable Internet access, technology is king
Grid parity is an important symbol of wind power truly going to the market and being widely used in production and life, and under the promotion of strong policies, there will finally be a breakthrough in 2020, and the same price of "wind and fire" will be realized for the first time.
As we all know, the wind power industry, as a technology-intensive industry and a capital-intensive industry, has higher and higher requirements for technology and capital, and the high threshold and fierce competition have also screened out enterprises suitable for the development of the industry. Under the extension and exploration of these enterprises, technology has gained space for continuous development. This also determines that wind power parity is based on technological progress.
According to the disclosure of the General Institute of Water Planning, most areas in China have the potential for parity, and the wind power industry still has a lot of room for development. However, the continuous development of grid parity will inevitably require a continuous reduction in the cost of electricity. This means that not only the price of wind turbines should be reasonably reduced, but at the same time, wind turbine enterprises must improve their technical capabilities and overall solution capabilities, improve the efficiency of wind turbine power generation and reduce power generation costs. In this process, the differences in the technical "genes" of enterprises will undoubtedly be multiplied. Therefore, in the ever-changing era of parity, enterprises can only choose the right direction, firmly promote, and have the courage to innovate and upgrade, which is the king.
Tailor-made, reliable escort
A wind farm is a large investment that requires high availability. For this purpose, all components must be particularly reliable and automatically prevent failures. As a provider of efficient sensing and system solutions, Balluff has been working closely with leading equipment manufacturers in the wind power industry for many years to provide sensors, measuring systems and solutions tailored to the specific requirements of onshore and offshore wind power plants. For example, Balluff has developed the BTL magnetostrictive linear displacement sensor specifically for the hydraulic cylinders of wind turbines. The sensor has excellent performance, contactless and low-maintenance characteristics; High pressure resistance up to 600 bar; When used in harsh conditions, the advantages of vibration and shock resistance are obvious.
With the help of this sensor, the system has the function of slurry pitch adjustment, which can accurately adapt the angle of the rotor blades to the wind speed, increase the power generation, and ensure the reliability of the system.
In addition to hydraulic control solutions, Balluff also offers customers a full range of solutions for controlling tolerances, monitoring brake discs, measuring tower tilt angles, monitoring liquid levels, detecting motor speeds, monitoring low speeds, ensuring optimal control quality, mechanically locking positions, and wheel hub rotation to build high-efficiency, high-tech wind power plants that provide value for the sustainable development of the wind power industry!

What is a balluff photoelectric sensor
Photoelectric sensors are sensors that use optoelectronic components as detection elements. It first converts the measured change into a change in the optical signal, and then further converts the optical signal into an electrical signal with the help of an optoelectronic component. Photoelectric sensors are generally composed of three parts: light source, optical path and optoelectronic components.
