Many turbines that Realise Energy Services operate were installed under the Fit or ROC schemes, and as a result, an uplift in income could be achieved through increasing your turbines generation potential.
In some situations, it is possible to repower the whole site by replacing the turbine with a larger or more productive machine.
To further improve efficiency of your current machine where repowering is not feasible, or to improve return on investment of repowered sites, there are many system upgrades suitable for older turbines. Major components such as control systems can be retrofitted with more modern technology to improve turbine production and efficiency and minimise potential for downtime.
It is important to seek professional advice regarding any repowering project to ensure it meets with any Ofgem, planning or grid legislation. This is particularly important where existing sites were installed under the FiT or ROC schemes. Your accreditation could be at risk if you do not follow the correct guidelines.
DEIF Control System Retrofit
Realise Energy Services have partnered with leading European control system manufacturer, DEIF Wind Power Technology, to offer a range of turbine retrofit solutions designed to optimise turbine efficiency, maximise turbine performance and increase production of your wind turbine.
With an impressive background in turbine control system design and manufacture, DEIF offer a comprehensive range of wind turbine retrofit control solutions including wind farm & pitch control technology and turbine control strategies.
Realise Energy Services’ DEIF-trained technicians are now able to assess your turbine and design, model and install a bespoke DEIF solution tailored specifically to your turbine. This can optimise production with increased functionality and reduced wear and tear ensuring improved turbine performance and availability.
We can offer clients a range of cost-effective, yet high quality retrofit solutions manufactured by DEIF who have a proven track record across a global fleet of hundreds of Vestas turbines supported with our locally based operation and maintenance and turbine monitoring services.
