11:30 - 13:00 Component reliability and diagnostics: early detection and intervention is key!
O&M & logistics  
Onshore      Offshore    

Room: Hall G1

This session will give an insight into wind turbine reliability and the state of the art in wind turbine diagnostics. It will look at how to collect and analyse reliability data in order to improve design as well as O&M strategies. This session will also look at the use of supervisory control and data acquisition (SCADA) data for condition monitoring: both 'conventional' ten minute data and higher frequency 1Hz data. Finally, there will be a case study of how power data from the converter can be used to infer wind turbine loading.
