Wind farms redevelopment: maximizing the value of aging and future wind turbines

Extend the life of wind assets and increase AEP

This webinar is brought to you by our partners at:

The decision to extend the operational lifetime and increase the AEP of wind assets depends on a variety of parameters: asset owner strategies, project economics, compliant retrofit technologies, and site and turbine operating conditions.

Upgrading components to extend the life and increase AEP of a turbine is usually more valuable than decommissioning or performing a complete repowering. New technology, permitting issues, regulatory hurdles and asset owner resources make repowering a daunting proposition for many operators. The identification of the best LTE and AEP increase strategy for a specific project is a key step and should begin well before the end of the design life.

In this webinar, we will cover the Redevelopment market opportunity according to the latest Wood Mackenzie outlook, the current solutions available and Nabla’s experience in this segment.

• Wind cumulative capacity approaching end of life

• Repowering vs. Redevelopment: the benefits of investing in lifetime extension and AEP increase

• Digital technology for guiding O&M teams through lifetime extension and EP increase plans

• Common technical and financial issues faced by operators at the end of life of a wind farm

• Enhancing asset value by adapting the post-warranty business model

• Long-term fine-tuning: Nabla’s “skin in the game” approach
