Engineered to deliver low-ripple DC regulation, high thermal robustness, and continuous operational integrity under harsh North Sea marine and Norwegian industrial plant environments.
As Norway leads the global energy transition through pioneering initiatives such as the Longship (Langskip) project and the Northern Lights CO₂ transport and storage infrastructure, industrial emitters and offshore platform operators face extreme technical demands for power conversion performance.
Carbon Capture, Utilization, and Storage (CCUS) systems—encompassing post-combustion amine absorption, Direct Air Capture (DAC), electrostatic flue gas precipitation, and electro-catalytic CO₂ conversion—are continuous-duty energy-intensive operations. The operational availability of these facilities hinges upon the absolute reliability, electrical efficiency, and power quality of their underlying power conversion infrastructure. High-current thyristor-controlled transformer rectifiers, active front-end AC-DC converters, and precision high-voltage DC power supplies represent the critical heart of these decarbonization assets.
In the context of the Norwegian continental shelf and onshore industrial zones (such as Brevik, Vestland, and Rogaland), electrical equipment must meet strict grid compliance standards (such as NVE regulations, DNV maritime specifications, and NORSOK coating guidelines). Power conversion architectures must withstand voltage unbalances on isolated 690V IT grid topologies, suppress harmonic distortion (THD) below stringent limits, and maintain high power factor under wide thermal variations extending down to sub-zero arctic temperatures.
Our custom-engineered power supply platforms are optimized for deployment across specific high-value carbon capture and environmental management sectors across Norway.
Equipping North Sea offshore platforms with low-footprint, water-cooled thyristor transformer rectifiers to power flue gas extraction turbines and amine reboiler heating circuits. Designed to comply with DNV-CG-0339 environmental conditions and harsh marine vibration profiles.

Powering electrostatic precipitators (ESP) with high-voltage DC power supplies up to 150kV/40kW for heavy cement manufacturing, waste-to-energy plants, and metallurgical processing facilities across Eastern and Western Norway.
High-precision, multi-channel DC power supply modules supplying dynamic pulsed current profiles for catalytic reactors converting captured CO₂ and green hydrogen into synthetic e-methanol and sustainable aviation fuels (SAF).
Custom subsea-capable transformer rectifiers and impressed current cathodic protection (ICCP) modules designed for permanent subsea injection wells, monitoring manifolds, and deep-sea CO₂ pipeline networks in the North Sea.
Norway's commitment to reducing national greenhouse gas emissions by 55% by 2030 has created an unparalleled market environment for industrial carbon capture and power conversion technology. Key technical driving forces shaping power architecture decisions include:
Selecting the optimal power supply architecture depends on duty cycle requirements, power level, voltage regulation speed, and environmental constraints.
