Are you aware of the financial impact a transformer failure can have on an offshore wind farm?

A transformer failure can have a substantial impact on the commercial success of an offshore windfarm

A key asset on a wind farm is the power transformer which connects the site to the electricity grid however, these assets can develop faults before their end of life leading to costly downtime to the wind farm.

An outage that lasts 6 months can cost an offshore wind farm up to £4m, whilst a repairable failure leading to a 7-day downtime period can cost up to £220k.

Transformer monitoring can play a significant role in mitigating these costs to wind energy providers and can offer a significant return on investment.
