Wind Farm Monitoring
With the growing need to keep energy clean, affordable, and efficiently utilized, wind energy is increasingly looked to as a source of renewable, green energy. Wind power generation has its own unique technical considerations, including variable production conditions, remotely dispersed assets, escalating costs, efficiently maximized power output, and a competitive global environment.
We understand your challenges
You are faced with:
- Monitoring and analyzing the performance of your critical assets and their components
- Reporting on asset health and key performance indicators, including production, days to failure, and alarm reports
- Minimizing unplanned downtime
- Reducing operational and maintenance costs by providing remote diagnostic capabilities
Optimize wind asset monitoring
Our Wind Asset Monitoring solution enables you to achieve your operational excellence goals by better managing your data, assets, and operations.
With real-time visibility into data, alarms and events, regardless of original equipment manufacturer (OEM), you will reap the benefits of early event detection in maintenance and operations throughout your organization.
The biggest issue with wind generation is that there’s nothing really steady-state about it. So you constantly have to overcome all the different variables to try to get something that gives you an apples-to-apples comparison of turbines inside a fleet and between fleets. You have to get creative as to how you’re going to look at data.
