Sereema secured an 800k€ investment in financing through a round of crowdlending. A couple of hundred eco-investors rushed to the Enerfip platform to support the project by subscribing bonds… enthusiastically closing the deal in a little less than 10 minutes! Back in 2018, Sereema had already successfully raised 400k, through a first crowdlending campaign with the green Enerfip financing platform. Having paid up the first round in full, the company decided to call yet again upon eco-investors to pursue its …
Embedded Intelligence is the next engine growth factor for the automotive industry. Specialists estimate that in less than 10 years, the software element will represent 60% of the value of a vehicle, compared to 20% today. Is it so incongruous to imagine a similar evolution in the wind industry? The energy market is in deep mutation. The prices of renewable energies are constantly falling and cutting into the ROI. At Sereema, we took a bet that sooner rather than later, …
A new day has arrived for the wind industry because we are releasing some of our secrets! The Yaw Misalignment Revolution White Paper studies this performance issue in detail to reveal the effects on turbine performance and lifetime. A sneak peak awaits: The yaw system is the mechanism all modern turbines have to handle direction changes on the wind. As winds are not constant by nature, wind turbines always need to face the wind to keep generating electricity. In order …

As wind turbines extract energy from the wind (in order to generate electricity), the wind flow behind the turbine is strongly perturbed, reducing the available energy on the wind. The wind speed decreases and the turbulence increases. Imagine how a water stream changes when we place an object floating on it? The same thing happens to the wind, even though in this case it’s a lot less visible. This change on the wind flow is what we called the wake …
A sneak peak into the most exciting online event of the season. Sereema"s MD Mus Rezzoug is going to speak today at 10:15 AM! Join us at the Reuters Wind Operations 2021.

Our Managing Director, Mus Rezzoug will also be a key speaker on an expert panel that will answer questions like: How to build a strong data-driven strategy to optimise maintenance activities, minimise downtime and …
Embedded Intelligence is the next engine growth for the automotive industry. Specialists estimate that in less than 10 years, the software dimension will represent 60% of the value of a vehicle, compared to 20% today. What about wind turbines? AI, big data and deep learning analysts are weaving the next technologic edge. Wind power has been gradually catching up as data / software is becoming an omnipresent and inevitable ally throughout the wind farm life cycles. Today, all available information …
Celebrating SEREEMA’s 6th anniversary, PES Wind: a leading wind industry magazine, thought it would be a good time to ask our CEO, Jérôme Imbert, to tell us about digital and asset management strategies from the beginning, how it is now and moving forward. "Data was frustrating for everybody and dealing with wind industry asset managers was a front row seat to the large volumes of information they treated on a daily basis and at the same time how blind they …
Article written by Mus Rezzoug: In a recent discussion, a French IPP CEO explained to me that he had no problem finding funds for hundreds of million euros per year to develop his new wind and solar farms projects. Across the Dover Channel in Scotland, offshore attractivity is so strong that the maximum amount offshore developers could pay for a seabed lease has shot up from £10,000 to £100,000 per km2! Wind industry has access to an abundance of funds …
ERG and Sereema have been successfully collaborating for 3 years now to improve performance on wind farms under Windfit monitoring. Here, we share one of the typical findings where the cause of the underperformance was linked by Windfit to a rotor aerodynamic imbalance. The system was then used to follow-up on the correction brought up by Vestas. On one of the turbines, the 3 blades were found to be misaligned from its 0° mark by up to 1°. Realignment had …
Hold your horses and get ready to discuss the evolving nature of asset management in the wind industry with Sereema. Instinctively, you want to believe that peak turbine profitability can be achieved with your current asset management strategy. We invite you to challenge yours and make room for improvement if there's any to find. How could you shape your asset management strategy to increase returns, and can the digital transformation of wind help you achieve this goal? Join us on …
As climate change becomes mainstream, more and more corporations have signed on to greening their activities. Market signals also indicate that retail investors in particular have an appetite for supporting corporations that are less about greenwashing and more about actual commitments. Mounting pressure to adapt corporate policies to ESG compliant may be working. 2020 saw the American giants: Google and Amazon signing some of the largest PPA deals in history, with 1.6GW across 18 projects and 650MW for a single …
Despite the context of a global pandemic, record high orders of over 15GW were ordered in 2020, says Wind Europe. This is one more fact confirming the trend of heavy investments attracted by the wind energy sector in the last few years, with numbers announced for the coming years being even more staggering. The race for new capacity concerns both large utilities (that are gradually becoming as big, or even bigger than the traditional Oil & Gas majors) and "Smaller" …
25,31€/MWh that’s the lowest ever average bid price for onshore wind in Europe. It’s coming out of Spain last week, after a first auction held under the new government rules. Although many players were served, one can only wonder about the Spanish exception. Kind of reminiscing of an auction a couple of years back, for an offshore wind farm in The Netherlands. Awarded at 42 €/MWh, the conjectures had spread like fever about the whys and hows. So, can Spain …
