14:30 - 16:00 Optimising O&M to reduce LCOE
O&M & logistics


Room: Hall G1
This session will consider a number of approaches to reduce the cost of wind energy and to maximise the performance of the turbines. It will consider the latest innovations in pitch design and offshore support vessels, robust methodologies to maximise wind farm lifetimes and how the intelligent use of turbine measurements (SCADA and LIDAR) can maximise performance. Finally, we will look at the innovations required to reduce the cost of offshore wind energy.
