Wind plant reliability is an essential aspect of any wind farm operation. Downtime due to equipment failure or maintenance can lead to significant financial losses and missed energy production opportunities. In fact, a recent study found that the average cost of downtime for a single wind turbine can range from $3,000 to $17,000 per day, depending on the size and location of the turbine. This is where continuous monitoring comes into play. By providing near-immediate feedback and insights to performance, wind farm operators can identify potential issues before they lead to downtime or lost pr ..read more

Repowering of wind projects in the US is set to attract $25 billion a year in spending by 2030. This potentially tens-of-GW market could be vital to meeting the US’s 2030 climate goals by ensuring wind projects are not shut down prematurely and existing developed land and transmission are used efficiently. The US has embraced repowering as a zero-carbon solution, including it in an extended and expanded tax credit subsidy regime for clean technologies under the newly passed Inflation Reduction Act. We believe that repowering wind projects will help meet the US’s climate goals and ensure that w ..read more
