We provide sensors and information to drive smart wind energyDigital transparency for future-oriented actionThe goal is clear: Costs and risks down, returns up! The analysis of operating data is an important lever for this. However, the plants do not have a modern digital infrastructure that provides access to relevant, dynamic data in real time. In addition, there is always the question of how the data can be automatically turned into instructions.
The digitalization of wind energy is becoming a reality.Through self-learning algorithms and predictive methods, we make it possible to optimally control wind turbine grids. Data is collected and made available in real-time in a cloud environment. Depending on the application, the data is analyzed directly on site or after transfer to a cloud. The operator thus receives up-to-date information on the performance and condition of his wind farm at all times. In addition to existing data, we generate "smart data" based on sensors from the rotor blades. Strain and vibration are measured where they occur – directly on the rotor. They are an essential data source for the digital twin of the plant.
retroX – Increasing efficiency with the retrofit solutionretroX is our manufacturer-independent retrofit solution that essentially operates four levers to increase the profitability of wind turbines. These are:
• Reduction of operating costs• Risk minimization• Increase in annual energy yield• Preparation for continued operation
The initial investment for the retroX hardware is unrivalled low, so that a quick return on investment is achieved.
