The manufacture and assembly of the products will take place in Incap's factory in Kuressaare, Estonia. Incap has already made the pre-production series and finalized the design for manufacture in house, and launched the actual mass production. The partnership contract is of great importance to Incap, as it is estimated to bring additional revenue of over EUR 5 million annually. The cooperation with Corvus fits well with Incap's prevailing strategic focus on energy and industrial electronics.
Corvus Energy provides high power energy storage in the form of modular lithium ion battery systems. Its purpose-built, field-proven battery systems provide sustained power to hybrid and fully electric heavy industrial equipment, including large marine propulsion drives. Corvus Energy was established in Canada with its head office, sales, product R&D, design and engineering, and production facilities in Vancouver, Canada. The company also has operations in Norway with sales, service and marketing activities in Bergen. The company's investors include Equinor Technology Ventures and Norsk Hydro of Norway, and BW Group of Singapore.
As the leading manufacturer of energy storage systems for maritime applications, Corvus offers the innovative Orca energy storage systems (ESS) solutions portfolio and has unsurpassed experience from more than 140 projects, totaling over 100MWh and 2 million operating hours. The company's battery systems have low maintenance costs and they enable reduced fuel consumption and emissions. More than 90% of large commercial hybrid vessels utilize Corvus energy storage systems.
Otto Richard Pukk, president and CEO of Incap Corporation states that partnership with Corvus Energy has significant impact on the whole company, as it enables Incap to expand the business of electronics manufacturing services for maritime industries. "We are happy to contribute to the production of Energy Storage Systems for green innovative ferries, which are equipped with Corvus Energy's advanced electronics," Pukk explains.

Overview of Soldering Systems With Vacuum
12/18/2024 | Dr. Paul Wild, Rehm Thermal Systems GmbHWhen soldering electronic assemblies, the focus of the vacuum application is on the removal of volatile substances from the solder joints and the associated reduction of pore formation. Particularly in the thermal management of power electronics components, pores can cause so-called hotspots with higher temperatures due to their poor heat conduction. These hotspots can lead to overheating of the components on the one hand and to thermally induced destruction of the solder structure on the other.
