Building on more than 30 years of R&D efforts and engineering expertise, Vestas has
the experience and knowledge to offer you the best service solutions available.
GeneratorCare™ offers repair and upgrade solutions designed to improve the lifetime of
your wind turbines and reduce your O&M costs, including exclusive uptower solutions for
V90-3.0 MW Leroy Somer generators.
Experience as a capabilityVestas is vastly experienced in handling generator repairs, both on-site and in
workshops.
With more than 3,000 generators under care annually and more than 27,000 turbines
under performance monitoring, Vestas knows better than anyone else what it takes to
offer continuous improvements of repair solutions and upgrades.
Global PresenceVestas’ global repair loops ensure rapid process times and rapid delivery.
Workshop repairs are carried out in Vestas’ generator repair factory in Germany or in
one of our partnership factories around the globe.
*Dependent on component-specific conditions
Generator failures can be costly, affecting turbine service time
and site performance, leading to a poorer return on investment.
This is why we have developed GeneratorCare™ – our compre-
hensive service programme which enables you to have gen-
erators repaired, updated and exchanged as soon as defects
are detected or through proactive inspections carried out by
experienced service technicians with the aid of wind turbine
performance data.
In capable handsWith Vestas, your generators are always in capable hands. We
boast cutting-edge R&D and excellent engineering personnel,
delivering unique, innovative and lifecycle-tested solutions.. Our
years of experience, quality assurance and high levels of staff
training mean you will have your turbines back in service in the
shortest time possible. GeneratorCare™ solutions are part of our
AOM offering, and also offered on a transactional basis, offering
the flexibility level you desire.
Fleetwide repair servicesOur R&D engineers are continuously developing innovative
repairs and upgrades for both Vestas and non-Vestas genera-
tors – making us a genuine fleetwide service partner. Over three
decades of operational development and continuous R&D in-
vestment have put us at the forefront of the global wind industry,
where we function as an expert, single-service provider. Genera-
torCare™ currently offers repairs and upgrades for the following
generator brands:
• Leroy Somer
• ABB
• Elin
• Loher
• Siemens
• Gamesa
Uptower and onsite repairsCarrying out repairs uptower and onsite is the most cost-effi-
cient renovation method available, potentially saving you 60%
of the price of a new generator. That is why we at Vestas continu-
ously pursue to offer as many uptower solutions as possible,
currently including:
• Bearing exchanges
• Rebalancing
• Rotor cable replacement
GeneratorCare™ includes the exclusive uptower repair solution
for Leroy Somer generators for 3 MW turbines. Most Leroy Somer
failures can be repaired uptower, which means minimal produc-
tion losses and costs for this popular generator brand.
GeneratorCare™Extending lifetime, boosting profits
BENEFITS OF UPTOWER AND ONSITE REPAIRS• Optimising cost savings
• Minimised downtime
• Short lead time
• Service flexibility
• Only pay for what is fixed
BENEFITS OF WORKSHOP REPAIRS• Easier and faster decision making
based on informed overviews
• Original parts and service kits
for all repair work
• Reduced downtime with express service
Repair loops and workshop repairsTo help you minimise downtime, GeneratorCare™ offers a unique
generator exchange programme using repair loops from our
workshops. To secure a fast return to service, we carry a stock of
replacement generators for most turbines, and we can deliver a
replacement generator to your site in a minimum of time.
If you prefer a 1:1 exchange, we bring your generator to our
industry-leading workshop facilities. In Lübeck, Germany, we
have a 6,500 m2 workshop, acting as a lighthouse for new repair
development and repair shop. The site is equipped with winding
machines, assembling and extensive testing facilitation.
Here we are able to conduct in-depth analysis and troubleshoot
the full scope of technical problems, with access to a wide range
of skilled personnel and technology. In the repair shops, we dis-
mantle, clean and inspect every generator in turn, before writing
the report on the required renovations and interventions. During
the repair process, each generator undergoes a rigorous lifetime
test. If the required repair work is not deemed profitable after
taking the generator age and other features into account, we will
recommend a new or refurbished generator.
All generators are available as spare parts.
Damage classification Once your generator is inspected, repair category A, B, C or D is
selected. The repair categories reflect the condition of the gen-
erator, so we can credit you accordingly.
Industry standardsEvery generator that leaves our factory or workshop – whether
new or repaired – is tested in line with international manufacturing
standards, including a full load test. Our work processes adhere to
ISO 9001:2008, ISO 14001 and OHSAS 18001:2007, and are
certified by German Lloyd to provide total quality assurance.
