SSS Clutches have been the mainstay clutch choice for power generation and energy storage since the early 1960’s with over 50,000 clutches manufactured.

SSS Clutches support the energy transition by enabling synchronous condensing for grid stability, delivering inertia, high fault current, reactive power, spinning reserve and revenue stacking for operators. They also support peaking power / grid firming for energy security and long duration energy storage (LDES) systems plus dual drives for demand side response and redundancy

Other applications include, combined cycle gas turbines (CCGT), open cycle gas turbines (OCGT), combined heat and power (CHP), uninterruptible power supplies (UPS), turbine turning and starter drives.

SSS is the world leader in overrunning clutches for high power applications with references up to 400MW power, 4MNm torque and 17,000 rpm.
