ArcelorMittal was present at Intersolar from 19-21 June 2024, in Munich (Germany), the world's leading exhibition for the solar industry.
When it comes to selecting materials for the support structures for PV panels, factors such as durability, maintenance costs, and structural stability of the installation drive material choices. Magnelis® from ArcelorMittal has been a standout choice for many years and the most advanced material for utility scale & rooftop.
ArcelorMittal's Magnelis® is a game-changer in the world of metallic coatings, offering unparalleled corrosion protection. With Magnelis®, lifetimes up to 50+ years can be achieved. Magnelis® is the only metallic coating certified for C5 environments.
At the fair, visitors learned how Magnelis® serves as the ultimate ally for solar structures, how using our High Strength Steel (HSS) can lead up to 20% mass reduction for torque tubes for trackers, and got to know more on how Magnelis® outperforms all alternatives, such as batch hot dip galvanised steel, other zinc-aluminium-magnesium (ZM) coatings, aluminium and continuously hot dip coated steels.
Significantly lower the CO2 footprint of your structures
Magnelis® is available as XCarb® recycled and renewably produced steel with a CO2 footprint reduced by 65% compared with the conventional blast furnace route. XCarb® recycled and renewably produced steel is made via the Electric Arc Furnace route using scrap steel and 100% renewable electricity.
Strengthening connections
Intersolar provided an excellent opportunity to connect with a diverse range of attendees. The team was pleased to meet with many of our valued customers, including Goldbeck Solar Group, Dome Solar, Ferrau, and Profilodomi, engaging in meaningful conversations and sharing insights about our latest innovations. These interactions highlighted the importance of face-to-face meetings in fostering strong business relationships.
