STEVENS Engineers & Constructors Discusses Renewable Energy Innovations

Middleburg Heights, Ohio -

STEVENS Engineers & Constructors, an industry leader in the engineering and construction sectors, is discussing the innovations in renewable energy that are poised to make an impact in the near future.

Renewable energy sources are on a path to replace traditional fossil fuels in the construction industry. This change is primarily driven by two factors – the environmental impact of greenhouse gas emissions and the economic advantages of adopting renewable energy. Construction companies are at the heart of this transformation. Organizations like STEVENS are pioneering innovative renewable energy projects and integrating clean energy sources into their commercial endeavors. The result is the construction of structures that serve their primary purpose while also contributing to a cleaner, greener future.

The first innovation that STEVENS highlights is the rise of solar panel technology. Traditional panels are being gradually replaced with thin-film solar cells which offer increased energy density and allow for more power generation in smaller spaces. This makes modern solar panel technology a more viable option for large-scale installations. The integration of real-time data systems has also allowed stakeholders to monitor and optimize solar energy production and distribution. Through the combined efforts of energy producers and local governments, the shift toward solar energy has already had a positive environmental impact, notably reduced air pollution.

Another potential source of plentiful clean energy in the future is wind power. There are two kinds of wind farms each with their own pros and cons – onshore and offshore wind farms. Onshore wind farms are easier and less costly to install but face challenges such as land use restrictions and noise concerns. On the other hand, offshore wind turbines benefit from consistent and powerful oceanic winds but have higher installation costs and can potentially impact marine ecosystems.

“Wind power is being revolutionized by innovations such as enhanced blade designs, improved materials, and sophisticated control systems,” says the spokesperson for STEVENS. “These innovations ensure that turbines capture the maximum amount of wind energy, converting it to electricity with minimal loss. So, wind power is instrumental in reducing carbon emissions and paving the way for a cleaner, more sustainable future.”

Solar powered energy and wind energy have to be stored to ensure a consistent power supply when they are not active. Battery technology, then, becomes pivotal to the green energy revolution as a method to store energy and propagate it over long distances. Lithium-ion batteries have particularly emerged as a game changer. Scientists are also looking to produce hydrogen from water using renewable energy and then using hydrogen fuel cell systems to convert the hydrogen back into electricity. Another available option is using compressed air to store energy and then releasing it to generate electricity.

The spokesperson sums up the future of renewable energy construction by saying, “The construction industry is witnessing a paradigm shift driven by innovative materials and sustainable innovation. As the demand for energy-efficient buildings rises, innovative solutions are adopted to create sustainable and eco-friendly built environments. Clean energy startups are also bringing fresh perspectives, innovative materials, and advanced methodologies to the table, driving the industry toward a cleaner future. Robust and transparent supply chains are being developed to provide materials and technologies to the construction industry that are genuinely sustainable. STEVENS is staying abreast of these construction innovation trends as we are committed to finding and implementing sustainable solutions for our clients.”

STEVENS specializes in heavy rigging, civil concrete, earthwork, demolition, and excavation. It also has expertise in structural steel erection, mechanical equipment setting and alignment, construction management, and plant maintenance, including shutdown and turnaround services.

As a sole-source provider of design/build services, the company has effectively merged outstanding technical, engineering, construction, and management expertise to better enable its clients, large and small, to overcome their most challenging project obstacles. The company’s diverse industry experience includes commercial, glass, government industrial, institutional, metals, military, petro/chemical, power, and renewables.
