Field-proven product solutions for renewables sector

Decades of experience in the Oil and Gas Industry continue to create value for customers in the renewable energy sector. For voestalpine Tubulars, this expertise serves as the foundation for developing innovative solutions for applications such as hydrogen storage, geothermal energy, and carbon capture & storage. By transferring proven technologies to emerging energy applications, customers benefit from reliable, high-tech solutions while minimizing technical risk.

One example is the VAhyper® premium connection, which was specifically developed for hydrogen applications. According to Nico Pototschnig, Sales Department at voestalpine Tubulars, the solution draws on decades of experience in connection design and development across a wide range of demanding applications. The result is a product portfolio that combines proven performance with the specific requirements of renewable energy projects, delivering an attractive balance between quality, reliability, and cost efficiency.
 
Beyond the pipe itself, voestalpine Tubulars supports customers with additional solutions that further enhance operational performance and durability. In geothermal projects, specialized coating and lining technologies can help increase flow rates, reduce corrosion, and extend service life. Equally important is the company's collaborative approach.

Our strength is build on field-proven expertise from oil and gas. For example, the connections we developed, such as VAhyper®, were specifically designed for hydrogen applications. This was possible, of course, because of the decades of experience we have gained in developing connections for different fields of application. This gives our renewables customers access to products that have already been tested in extreme environments.
