Some glimpses from Paris at the (record-breaking) conference, with 5400 attendees and 105 years of serving knowledge for the global power industry, where we met our current customers and new connections for some interesting conversations.

Every company has a part to play in the energy transition and future electrification of the planet. Ridgway's part is to enable the industrialisation and scale of advanced manufacturing machines to produce the cables of the future.

Here's a reminder of what we bring to the sector:

⚡High-temperature superconducting (HTS) cables for power and grid infrastructure
⚡HTS cables for magnet systems for fusion energy
⚡Coil manufacturing and taping for motors & generators
⚡Cable & conductor covering for electrical infrastructure
⚡Reinforced thermoplastic pipe (RTP) & thermoplastic composite pipe (TCP) production machinery for oil, gas & hydrogen infrastructure

Live from the CRU Wire & Cable Connections Summit!

We are thrilled to be in Hanover this week as a Silver Member and Sponsor for CRU Communities, showcasing how Ridgway’s advanced winding, pay-off, and take-up technologies are powering the next generation of energy infrastructure. ⚙️💡

The summit kicked off with an incredible site visit to the Nexans Stella Nova Innovation Centre. It’s clear that the future of global electrification relies on high-value, cutting-edge innovation, particularly in High-Temperature Superconductivity (HTS), advanced cryogenics, and high-voltage cable systems.

Key takeaway for the Ridgway team: As Nexans trailblazes in carrying massive power loads through HTS cables and cryogenic systems, Ridgway’s strategic focus on HTS cables and coils places us right at the heart of this ecosystem. Yann Duclot's shoutout to Ridgway’s manufacturing technologies was much appreciated!

The wire and cable industry isn't just keeping pace with change; it's defining the next era of infrastructure. From massive power grids to hyperscale AI data centres, we’re ready to support the transition.

Stop by our stand to meet Christina, Richard and Andy representing Ridgway team, see our machines in action, and discuss how we can collaborate on your next precision engineering or electrification project! 🤝

What an incredible week in Boston!

Christina King and Mike Allen have wrapped up at Group Americas, as they joined global energy leaders, researchers, and developers at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology.

Three structural shifts stood out:

1. The Infrastructure Race: Commercialisation timelines are accelerating rapidly, shifting the sector from a pure physics challenge to an industrial scale-up race.

2. The HTS Bottleneck: Scaling compact magnetic confinement systems requires standardising high-temperature superconducting (HTS) tape processing from thousands to hundreds of thousands of kilometers annually.

3. The Demand Pull: Unprecedented power consumption from data centers and AI clusters is positioning hyperscalers as critical, immediate off-takers for scalable clean energy systems.

As the industry moves from pilot prototypes to continuous deployment, a trusted, high-precision supply chain is the enabler. From our facility in Leicester, Ridgway Machines is proud to deliver the specialized cabling, winding, and taping infrastructure making this future repeatable.

Thank you to everyone we connected with on the floor.

Let's build what's next.

We’re heading to FusionX Americas at MIT from June 9-11 to connect with the global fusion ecosystem.

For decades, Ridgway has specialised in the design and manufacture of high-precision taping, winding and wrapping machinery for the production of conductors, cables and coils.
Today, that expertise has evolved into developing the specialised HTS cabling, coil machinery, and magnet technologies required to power the fusion energy revolution - a transformation that directly intersects with the core mission of this year's hashtag .

As the global ecosystem gathers at MIT, this forum marks a defining moment for aligning our advanced industrial manufacturing capabilities with the strict engineering demands of the growing fusion sector.

We are proud to bring our heritage to Boston, along with Mike Allen MSc and Christina King to discuss the possibility of energy transition for the future and robust supply chains required to bring commercial fusion to life.

If you are attending, please reach out or connect with us here to set up a meeting!

Seen you soon!
