RAPID DEVELOPMENT AND INCREASE OF COMPLEXITY OF WIND TURBINES REQUIRES SPECIALISTS
Challenges and possible consequences
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 contracts offer a certain protection, however do not guarantee fast reaction and have often caps O&M 2.0: INDEPEDENT OPERATIONS AND MAINTENANCE OF WINDFARMS V German-Brazilian Renewable Energy Business Conference Natal/RN, 30th of May 2017
SPECIAL CHALLENGES IN BRAZIL
Different climatic conditions Stronger and more frequent wind results in very high capacity factor: Brazil 38% vs. Europe: 25% Brazil is world’s number one in lightnings Many turbines are not well adapted to these conditions Brazil has continental dimensions, extreme distances complicate production, logistics, training and service Wind industry is relatively new and still in development: experiences with O&M are scarce Quality issues in service Conflict of interests between maintenance and OEM Asymetric service contracts between vendor and operator O&M 2.0: INDEPEDENT OPERATIONS AND MAINTENANCE OF WINDFARMS V German-Brazilian Renewable Energy Business Conference Natal/RN, 30th of May 2017
OPERATIONAL MANAGEMENT OF WIND FARMS IS IMPORTANT FROM THE BEGINNING AND GETS CRITICAL AFTER 5 YEARS How to master the challenges Mandate constant monitoring by experienced specialists Check clauses of operational contracts Comission inspections at least every 2 years of operation Consider to mandate inspections one year prior to end of garantee or full maintenance contract to make demands in time Check insurance protection and if necessary adjust to close gaps
Monitoring, inspections and maintenance are indispensable in order to continuously achieve maximum electricity yields regular O&M 2.0: INDEPEDENT OPERATIONS AND MAINTENANCE OF WINDFARMS V German-Brazilian Renewable Energy Business Conference Natal/RN, 30th of May 2017 AGENDA

OEM SERVICE CONTRACTS HAVE LIMITATIONS, INDEPENDENT OPERATIONS CAN BE AN ALTERNATIVE
O&M by OEM O&M by ISP Reaction time slow Better reaction time OEMs do not show “real” “Real” availability time- or availability energy-based Service quality with problems Better quality of service Transparency limited Fully transparent documentation Mainly reactive measures Preventive, proactive measures Conflict of interest OEM and No conflict of interest maintenance Expensive Less expensive Reduction of OPEX Better rentability O&M 2.0: INDEPEDENT OPERATIONS AND MAINTENANCE OF WINDFARMS V German-Brazilian Renewable Energy Business Conference Natal/RN, 30th of May 2017
OPERATIONS ARE CONTROLLED 24/7 WITH SPECIALIZED RESOURCES
How does indepedent monitoring and operations work? Consolidation of all available turbine data into one multibrand software system even with different turbine brands Processes are aligned and optimized for system, no paper! Storage of data on separate server (customer defines where), independent from SCADA Real-time monitoring of all data – 24/7 Powerful tools for analysis and reports tailored to customers needs Exchange with expert network for quick and efficient solutions Daily processing and checking of all turbine events, alerts, service protocols in Center of Operations Highly qualified staff, trained experts with data background O&M 2.0: INDEPEDENT OPERATIONS AND MAINTENANCE OF WINDFARMS V German-Brazilian Renewable Energy Business Conference Natal/RN, 30th of May 2017
FOR SUCCESSFUL MONITORING INTERPLAY BETWEEN KNOW HOW, NETWORK AND EFFICIENT IT SYSTEMS IS CRITICAL Success Factors of Monitoring
IT • Stable and Network integrated IT systems • Regular contact to • Infrastructure manufacturers, suppliers, needs for data operators and service storage and access providers and exchange
Know How • Experience with wind farms • Qualification and regular training of personnel O&M 2.0: INDEPEDENT OPERATIONS AND MAINTENANCE OF WINDFARMS V German-Brazilian Renewable Energy Business Conference Natal/RN, 30th of May 2017
