Today’s machines generate 100 times as much electricity as earliest wind turbines and have a much higher complexity Throughout their operating life wind turbines are subject to enormous stresses Defects are not always visible and often only experts can detect them by specialized analysis Unremedied defects can impair performance and lead to unplanned disturbances Long downtimes can come at a high price and can turn a project negative Full maintenance contract offer a certain protection, however do not guarantee fast reaction

Back ckgr ground One turbine in a farm of 10 WTG was shut down due to gearbox failure. Exchange is expected to take a minimum of 2 months in total . Our Approac ach Permanent Monitoring analyses the whole wind farm in detail and commisions technical inspections of all turbines. Inspections show anomaly (loud noise) in a second unit. Resu sult Permanent Monitoring continues with analysis and discovers temperature warning. Performed a magnetic inspection of gearbox and discovers metal pieces in gear oil, another gearbox defect. Metal pieces indicate defect of gearbox Temperature Alert

Weather effects can cause massive damage which may impede,
Technical inspections help to obtain clarity on the current status
result avoid costly consequential damage Small disturbances can cause damages of large parts and longer downtime. Often only detected by inspections Cable on sharp edge Rotor blades might be needed to exchanged instead
“Small” undetected issues like cables on sharp edge could cause fire and lead to loss of entire turbine

Strong thunderstorms in the region. Planned rotor blade inspection in two wind farms were preponed. Inspections discovered a burn mark residue at the receptor of 3 WTGs The manufacturer repaired 2 WTG and planned to repair the third WTG only 3 months later 2 months later another lightning occurred and caused strong damage in one rotor blade
In consequence manufacturer had to replace all 3 rotor blades, since this type is no longer available in the market and all blades need to be equal Burn mark residue Open edge of rotor blade
