How can we improve renewable energy solutions for sustainable and reliable power?
Harnessing wind, solar, hydrogen, and other renewable resources is a critical step to maximizing energy efficiencies and creating cleaner energy options. By incorporating solar and wind power into existing power portfolios, clients can alleviate reliance on other energy sources to create clean and dependable energy solutions.
At Exponent, our scientists and engineers advise on matters related to active solar technologies, including equipment that converts the sun's energy into electricity, passive solar techniques for building material selection and orientation relative to the sun's rays, and technical issues unique to wind turbine technology.
Our sustainable energy expertise extends to semiconductor devices, electronic infrastructures, control mechanisms, diverse types of concentrating solar technologies, thermal energy storage systems, molten salt systems, heat exchangers employed in concentrated solar power plants, and systems applications. Additionally, Exponent provides consulting for renewable-energy-related health, environmental, and regulatory issues.
Because we work in a multidisciplinary fashion, our clients benefit from consultation and technical support at each step. Our teams include thermal science engineers, electrical engineers, computer scientists, data scientists, mechanical engineers, and subject matter experts steeped in experience related to energy regulations and compliance. Whether your interest lies in product design and development, manufacturing, distribution, installation, or repair, our experts provide the support and expertise you need to address the most pressing solar, wind, and renewable energy issues.
