ABB Large Motors and Generators

Keeping the world turning, while saving energy every day

Making the case

for energy efficiency

→ The global population

is expected to rise to

9.7 billion by 2050

→ The global economy

is expected to double

over the same period

→ Urbanization, and the

rise of living standards

will increase the

demand for energy

→ The world is going

electric and the

number of motors

will double by 2040

→ Critical processes

can’t stop, but need to

be energy efficient to

reduce CO 2 emissions

→ With high-efficiency

motors we can do

just that

Energy efficiency

makes the difference

It has been estimated that, if all of the more than 300 million industrial electric motor-driven systems currently in operation were replaced with optimized, high-efficiency equipment, global electricity consumption could be reduced by up to 10 percent Electricity consumption

Our products power the critical applications in industry, infrastructure and

marine transportation

Induction motors Powering pumps to provide reliable water supply 24/ Synchronous motors Running the compressors at the heart of air separation plants Special design motors Turning propellers to navigate the worlds largest cruise ships Synchronous Generators Providing stability and inertia to the (renewable) power grid Our portfolio and where are our Motors and Generators are used

Our domain expertise

leads the industry

We understand customer needs, building on decades-long experience and relationships Here’s some examples of our customer successes

Telangana State Irrigation

India

Telangana is the world’s largest multi-stage pumping Infrastructure. The
Kaleshwaram Lift Irrigation System is a massive engineering project designed to
bring much needed water to the region.

Stretching over 300 km, the gravity- driven lift irrigation system raises and redirects 5,5 Billion cubic meters of water annually to the reservoirs and channels Reliable, advanced technology Electrical stress to machine and power grids minimized with integrated Drives We supplied the largest capacity motors used by ABB for irrigation: 40 & 43 MW Rich industry experience Global & Local team collaboration

Tallink MyStar

Helsinki, Finland

AS Tallink Grupp is a leading provider of passenger
and freight transport services in the northern Baltic region

MyStar uses liquefied natural gas (LNG) as its main fuel source. In addition, MyStar has state-of-the-art technology that meets all current and known future emissions requirements MyStar is fitted with 2 main motors and five generators which supply the ship with all the necessary electricity it needs

Statkraft

Lister Drive,

Liverpool, UK

ABB’s synchronous condensers are being used to stabilize the UK power grid with growing renewable energy.
Thanks to a close, trusted collaboration Statkraft have signed a 10-year services contract.

High inertia system Ensures that network frequency and voltage are stable Essential for grid reliability Close collaboration Rich industry experience
