Session Code: W1
Electrification is a buzzword throughout most industries now and is a common topic being discussed at conferences, events, and board rooms. While many businesses and industries have already embraced electrification, others are still working to understand the impacts, opportunities, and decision points to make. To add further confusion, electrification means many different things and is a broad term encompassing all types of ideas, products, movements, efforts, and industries. This confusion hinders the ability of an industry or company to digest and fully understand what is going on and how to react within the context of their business strategy.
In this context, the National Fluid Power Association (NFPA) launched an Electrification in Fluid Power Task Force in September 2022 to help better define electrification within the fluid power industry, to describe the impact of electrification on fluid power, and to develop strategies for effectively marketing 'electrified' fluid power solutions. In this session, the final report of this Task Force will be presented, which includes detailed descriptions and recommendations in each of these crucial areas. All participants will receive a complimentary copy of the report.
