HELUKABEL is making a strong mark in the clean energy world. It offers top-quality cables that support solar, wind, hydro, fuel cell, and storage systems. These cables help businesses, farms, and grid operators use green energy better.

Global Reach & Deep Expertise

HELUKABEL is a German family company founded in 1978. It works in 43 countries and runs 76 sites globally. It delivers over 33,000 items from stock and designs all cables in its R&D centre in Windsbach. So, it can help customers fast with expert advice.

Strong Commitment to Renewable Energy

The company built special cables for solar, wind, and fuel cell systems. It also supports battery storage solutions. HELUKABEL wants to drive down emissions and push clean power.

Solar & Photovoltaic Systems

HELUKABEL makes SOLARFLEX®‑X cables. They carry direct current from solar panels to inverters. These cables:

  • Work from –40 °C to +90 °C
  • Are flame‑retardant and halogen‑free
  • Resist UV, ozone, acids, alkalis, and rodents 

They also meet UL, CSA, TÜV, and DIN VDE standards, and they come with rodent damage protection.

Wind Energy Connections

For onshore and offshore wind farms, HELUKABEL offers:

  • Low‑voltage to medium‑voltage power cables
  • Fibre‑optic and data cables
  • Pre‑assembled cables and connectors
  • Bundling and fastening accessories 

The sheaths resist seawater, oil, ozone, and UV. That helps cables last in tough settings.

Fuel Cell & Biogas Systems

HELUKABEL helped Reverion, a German firm. It builds container‑based fuel cell plants. These plants convert biogas to electricity with 80 % efficiency. They also work in reverse, making hydrogen and methane from surplus energy.

HELUKABEL supplied cables that:

  • Handle up to 1,500 V and 300 °C
  • Connect inverters, sensors, and engine systems
  • Include SOLARFLEX, H07RN‑F, hybrid, and HELUTHERM 400 nickel cables

These durable cables helped Reverion start pilot plants in late 2023, with serial production ahead.

Battery Storage Applications

HELUKABEL supplied cables for TESVOLT battery energy storage projects. TESVOLT runs storage systems in 5,000+ sites globally. The cables connect battery modules to inverters and data networks.

TESVOLT’s CTO, Simon Schandert, said:

“HELUKABEL had the cables with the exact specifications we needed in their portfolio … immediately won us over.” 

One key product is HELUDATA TRONIC 2464/300. It is a flexible PVC data cable, UL/CSA approved, and ideal for tight spaces.

Durability & Safety in Any Climate

HELUKABEL’s cables survive harsh settings. They resist:

  • Heat, cold, UV, ozone
  • Sea air, acids, alkalis
  • Flame and rodents

Some cables handle temperatures up to 400 °C. They meet strict European and US safety rules.

HELUKABEL offers:

  • Product planning and selection help
  • Global logistics and fast deliveries
  • On-site technical support
  • Broader portfolio: data, hybrid, grounding, and fibre-optic cables
