Due to the highly variable and dynamic operating conditions of wind turbines, there is s igni f icant mechanical stress placed on the machinery leading to significant drop in power generation.

Challenges faced by the Industry

To reduce unexpected maintenance costs (that form bulk of O & M costs), wind turbine owners and operators need to monitor key parameters and performance measures of each individual turbine and all of its subsystems while also retaining a bird's eye view of the entire wind park.

An accurate understanding of the performance of wind turbines is essential to achieve the best annual yield and the capacity utilization to provide the lowest possible cost of energy.

To cater to the needs of consistent power generation and equipment reliability, it is essential to monitor the performance of critical equipment, its degradation over a period of time and long-term alarm management.

The following are the major challenges faced by the wind turbine industry:

Recovering and maintaining profitability, reducing fixed and variable costs while maintaining the flexibility needed to continue growing

To focus on key growth markets and
