MAINTENANCE PROBLEM (€)
In WTG farms (specially offshore) the
costs for maintenance are high, being
dominated by unexpected severe failures
leading to reactive maintenance. The
costs of downtime (among others..)
drive the need for condition monitoring.
Cost variables:
- Downtime
- Expensive material savings
- Unexpected maintenance costs
- Inspection costs (planned)

It seems to be clear: We badly need BLADE CMS to predict blade
failure. We need indication of upcoming blade structural degradation in
order to launch proactive maintenance or repair process.
Linkedin, Wolfang Holstein, Jan 2012
David Brown’s research emphasizes that reactive maintenance for the
average utility-scale wind farm can cost $1.5million more – each year –
than preventative maintenance.
