Wind Energy Operations and Turbine Asset Management

South Africa's growing wind fleet in the Eastern and Northern Cape needs operators who can keep turbines available and revenue flowing long after commissioning. This programme covers the operations and maintenance side of onshore wind, from performance monitoring and warranty management to spares logistics in remote locations. Delegates learn to read turbine data, manage service contractors and plan interventions that protect long term yield.

What you will be able to do

  • Interpret turbine performance and availability data to spot underperforming assets.
  • Plan preventive and corrective maintenance schedules for onshore wind farms.
  • Manage original equipment warranties and full service maintenance agreements.
  • Coordinate spares, cranes and specialist technicians for remote site interventions.
  • Apply safety procedures for working at height and in the nacelle environment.
  • Build an asset management plan that maximises yield across the project lifetime.
