How a major UK wind farm could have avoided millions in lost revenues with online transformer monitoring

Camlin Energy supported a major UK wind operator after a catastrophic transformer bushing failure caused a five-month outage. Without online monitoring, the developing fault went undetected, resulting in significant revenue loss. This highlights the critical need for continuous transformer health monitoring to prevent unplanned failures.
