Wondering how Windfit can double up as a LIDAR? What's a yaw misalignment? When your turbine is not facing the wind appropriately, its yaw is misaligned, leading to loss in production and increased turbine loading. When the yaw is misaligned, the machine "thinks" it's facing the wind while in reality, the wind comes sideways. This gap is what explains the loss of production. In order to extract the maximum energy from the wind to produce the most of electricity possible, …
Offshore wind is steadily growing, with more than 20 GW installed in Europe alone. Climate change is accelerating the need for swift transition to renewables as well, and the European Commission agrees. The ambitious target to achieve 450 GW by 2050 in order to keep temperature rises below 1.5°C is pushing offshore wind farms to the front of the line in order to meet the demand. But how can we make sure that offshore windfarms aren’t just available but operating …
Sereema continues to blaze the trail as we expand our turbine brand base! With the latest installation on ENO turbines in Germany, we now equip 13 different brands, including the top 5 Western manufacturers of 2019, Vestas, GE, SiemensGamesa, Nordex and Enercon. The Sereema team is delighted about this phenomenal performance and is happy to report that this year alone, we have equipped 479 turbines!
In today's world, wind farms have achieved technical availability of 99% which implies that wind turbines need less than 100 h per year of downtime. If wind turbines are available to produce electricity for 361 days out of the year, why should we care about performance? It is now widely accepted in the wind industry that one should acknowledge the fact that wind turbines are often operating in very unfavorable weather and site conditions with their operation being difficult to …

Life after the pandemic should indeed not be the same. We have all been put in house arrest, and as we come towards the end of this reflection period we have realised that we as a species are resilient. For those of us in the energy sector, wind has consistently proven to be a viable challenger to O&G. Wind energy has resulted in cost and carbon savings both as it reached 44 dollars per kilowatt hour in 2020. But is …

When Rotor aerodynamic imbalance impacts your wind turbine performance... Windfit is there to help. How? Let us share a client's case where Windfit detected a sudden increase of the aerodynamic imbalance (1). At the same time, a significant plunge of the turbines power curve was observed (2) on the Windfit web portal results. Our client called their O&M ENERCON who, based on Windfit's diagnosis, went on site to check the zero angle of the blades and found a 3° pitch …
Windfit rotor imbalance diagnosis have been confirmed by experts on site on a regular basis. Lately CP.Max Rotortechnik went on a windfarm in Italy on one of our client's request to proceed with iterative pitch adjustements on Vestas V90-3.0 MW turbines after Windfit detected high rotor aerodynamic imbalance levels. Windfit results were used to accurately and precisely follow the intervention. In this case, Windfit showed that after the 1st pitch adjustment, the imbalance level increased instead of decreasing. In the …
