Copper's electrical and thermal conductivity and high resistance to both atmospheric and aqueous corrosion makes it so valuable in solar energy systems. Solar power systems can contain approximately 5.5 tons of copper per MW.
Copper is used extensively in wind turbine components to generate and transmit electricity: Copper windings. As the turbine's rotors spin, copper coils in the generator pass through a magnetic field. This creates electric currents from the kinetic energy. Wiring and cables.
Onshore wind farms use approximately 7,766 lbs. of copper per MW. Offshore wind installation uses 21,068 lbs. of copper per MW. The cabling of the offshore wind farms accounts for the bulk of the copper usage. 6.5%: percentage of the country's electricity generated by wind energy in 2018, enough to power 26 million homes.
Copper has many benefits — it's durable, conductive, ductile, and recyclable. It's a preferred solution in clean energy applications, including solar energy, wind turbines, and energy storage. By 2040, these types of renewable energy are expected to make up 61% of copper consumption.
