Wind Turbine Operation and Maintenance Trends

The global COVID-19 pandemic has been unprecedented and staggering, with wind turbine operation and maintenance experiencing higher-than-anticipated demand across all regions compared to pre-pandemic levels.

Wind turbine’s operation and maintenance are vital to the wind energy industry. These services help reduce the failure rate and avoid downtime during power outages. Several wind turbine components, such as gearboxes, sensors, electrical systems, control systems, and generators, are critical and vulnerable to failure.

The need for operation and maintenance at regular intervals is increasing. Several governments across the globe are promoting wind energy as an alternative energy source.

The electricity demand is rising continuously due to the increase in population. As the demand increases, countries are expanding their electricity capacity by installing new plants or expanding their existing energy plants.
