12 | 13 challenges in renewaBle energies // windwerk – independent wind and solar farM services

on a globa l sca le renewable energies are already producing a sub-

stantial share of our energy and in this way they are making a significant contribution

to protect our planet. they are the energy of the future.

germany as one of the world’s most important industrial nations has decided to

cover 100 % of its energy supply by renewable energies. the restructuring of energy

supply is in full swing in germany. at the latest since the paris climate agreement in

late 2015 energy generation from fossil fuels is no longer an option even on a world-

wide scale. the same applies to the use of nuclear energy: it fails due to its high

costs and risks. the rapid growth of renewable energies requires a professionaliza-

tion along the entire value-added chain. Qualified specialists are the order of the day.

r a p Id de v el o p men t o f w Ind energy t ec hn o l o gy

the development of modern wind energy began in the 1980s in germany. Meanwhile

an international industrial sector has established itself which also includes such

global players as siemens and general electric. today’s machines can generate 100

times as much electricity as the earliest wind turbines.

m o der n w Ind t u r bIne s r eq u Ir e e x t en sI v e k n o w-h o w

as performance increased the demands on man and technology also rose. today

the control, monitoring and maintenance of wind turbines require extensive know-

how both in the area of mechanical and electrical engineering, a lot of experience

and appropriate tools. in view of the high performance of modern renewable-energy

power plants malfunctioning results in substantial financial losses.

hI g h p er fo r m a n c e l a rg e-s c a l e s o l a r fa r m s

even in the photovoltaics segment today’s plants can in terms of dimension and

design hardly be compared to those in the 1990s when the first solar plants with just

a few kilowatt output were built in germany. today, both rooftop and ground-mounted

plants are built in megawatt size. some ground-mounted solar farms even reach an

output of several hundred megawatt.

the electricity yield of a single solar park is correspondingly large – and also the

financial loss if inverters or module strings break down. although on the whole

solar farms are less service intensive than wind farms they also require continuous

performance monitoring.

today wind and solar farms are important, and in future they will be the decisive

power plants for the energy supply. thus, their operation increasingly requires

professional management.

Monitoring and operations // windwerk – independent wind and solar farM services

a w Ind fa rm Is operating 24 hours on 365 days a year. the steady operation

of a plant requires permanent monitoring to ensure a trouble-free operation and a high

performance.

o u r o f f e r

we represent your interests in dealing with manufacturers and maintenance compa-

nies and monitor your plants around the clock. our regular reporting ensures that you

are always kept informed about the state of your wind farm and the work of your service

providers. you do not need special technical know-how and can fully concentrate on your

investment.

our monitoring offers are custom-tailored and depend on the maintenance concept used

in your project. we offer our services for all service scenarios, for example:

full maintenance contract

we check the execution of the service provider on a daily basis and close „gaps“, if any.

basic maintenance contract

we take care of the daily operative wind farm management, supervise the basic main-

tenance, and commission preventive measures and repairs as required. as a result

operating costs can be significantly reduced and expensive maintenance contracts

could possibly be replaced.

the investor operates a wind farm with 8 wind turbines in northern germany. the

plant monitoring is done by dge.

o u r A p p r oA c h

the permanent monitoring of the farm discloses a continuously poor performance.

the plant manager advocates for a replacement of the machine heads and wins

acceptance. But the exchange does not lead to the promised yield increase.

r e s u Lt

the plant manager negotiates again with the manufacturer, to the effect that costs

for the full maintenance contract are waived for 5 years. for this time period the

reduction amounts to about 40 per cent of the annual operating costs.

as a manufacturer-independent service provider with approximately 20 years of inter-

national experience our know-how is extensive and we have a far-reaching network of

partners. this allows us to operate your plants as trouble-free as possible, to examine

the quality of the maintenance works professionally and, with that, to assure a long

service life of the wind park.

inspections and eXpert assessMents / / windwerk – independent wind and solar farM services20 | 21

w Ind turbIne s are subject to extreme strain. weather effects can cause

massive damage which may impede, or even preclude, operation.

technical inspections help to obtain clarity on the current status of the turbine, iden-

tify defects as early as possible, and as a result avoid costly consequential damage.

this minimizes the maintenance effort, ensures a long service life of the machinery,

and improves availability

o u r o f f e r

as independent experts we will assist and advise you across the whole of the life-

cycle of wind power plants.

bA c k g r o u n d

a large wind farm with an investment volume of approximately 50 million euro is

equipped with a full maintenance contract with a residual term of only a couple of

months. upon expiry of the maintenance contract all claims to correction of faults

would have been forfeited.

o u r A p p r oA c h

the operator wishes to protect his claims under the contract and decides to com-

mission independent inspections to assess the condition of the farm so that he can

complain defects prior to the expiry of the contract.

r e s u Lt

• considerable rotor blade damages were found in almost all wind turbines.

• the manufacturer remedies the defects, the cost of which would otherwise have

had to be borne in full by the operator at a later stage. the savings in maintenance

costs amounted to 700 teur.

• Based on the inspection results a new contract with better conditions is negotiated

which leads to savings of 1.4 million euro.

• the total savings due to the inspections and the negotiations amounted to 2 million

euro.

consulting and due diligence // windwerk – independent wind and solar farM services

Imp orta nt for the suc ce s sful construction, operation and

purchase or sale of wind farms are fair contractual regulations. contracts are often

complex due to manifold technical descriptions and may be designed one-sidedly to the

detriment of the operator, a factor which can then put him at a financial disadvantage. the

knowledge and implementation of appropriate regulations in your contracts by our legal

and technical experts give you security.

o u r o f f e r

we evaluate assets and performance of your renewable energy investment. our consult-

ing embraces design and optimization of contracts and provides recommendations for

improvements of your operation.

o u r s e r v c I e s I n d e tA I L

• performance Quick-check: analysis of all relevant and available operation, production,

and status data (evaluation of performance curves, loss of income, error codes etc.)

• advice on contractual arrangement with manufacturers and service providers regard-

ing both existing and new contracts.

• due diligence: integral evaluation of your plant e.g. in the event of purchase, sale or

damage.

• support of claim settlement, especially with insurance companies.

the manufacturer sells a performance upgrade to a wind farm with 18 wind turbines

which supposedly improves the power curve of the existing power. the manufacturer

guarantees a yield increase of five per cent. the technical consultancy is taken over by

dge.

o u r A p p r oA c h

in order to verify the effectiveness the entire wind farm is equipped with the upgrade

with the exception of two turbines. the operator commissions an accompanying analy-

sis of the yield data of the plants with and without upgrade. the comparison shows that

the upgrade measures of the manufacturer did not lead to any yield increase whatso-

ever. a complaint is raised against the performance upgrade and efforts are made to

find a business solution that is attractive for the operator.

r e s u Lt

thanks to the renegotiations better price terms could be reached for the full mainte-

nance contract which could in addition be concluded over a longer time period. the

savings amount to approximately fifteen per cent of the overall costs for servicing and

maintenance to be expected for the term of the contract.
