S4 - Main Component Repairs and Replacement
14 Nov - From 09:00 to 10:50
Introduction
As a wind turbine owner, tackling main component repairs and replacements is a multifaceted endeavour. Balancing factors like component lifespan, maintenance costs, and downtime is crucial. Moreover, the advanced procedures, equipment accessibility, evolving technology, and supplier competency add layers of complexity to the decision-making process. Sharing experiences on these complex issues will give you both a valuable network and help you avoid pitfalls.

Javier López Nieto, Global Head of O&M (excl US) - Onshore Wind and Solar at Iberdrola
Iberdrola is a global leader in renewable energy and is actively exploring new methods and technologies for repairing and replacing main components. Usually, these turbine-specific owners' meetings are hosted by O2O WIND, but we have asked the wind asset owners to help us in Madrid.
A big thank you to Iberdrola!
