Harden your renewable grid

A resilient energy future starts with a grounding system built to last.

Solar, wind and battery energy storage systems depend on extensive grounding networks connecting equipment pads, arrays, inverters, transformers and other critical assets. Often installed across large or remote sites, these conductors must withstand decades of shifting soils, moisture, thermal cycling, mechanical stress and environmental exposure while delivering dependable electrical performance.

Copperweld Copper-Clad Steel (CCS) grounding conductors are engineered for these demanding environments. Combining the electrical performance and corrosion resistance of copper with the strength and durability of steel, CCS helps maintain grounding integrity through the mechanical and environmental stresses renewable infrastructure encounters throughout its service life.

With more than a century of bimetallic expertise, Copperweld engineers grounding solutions that help renewable energy developers and utilities build stronger, more reliable infrastructure designed for long-term performance.

Service life varies based on soil conditions, installation environment, and exposure factors. Underground performance may be impacted by soil chemistry, pH, moisture, and circulating currents. These conditions influence the performance of all grounding conductor materials, including copper and CCS.
