Wind

AJT Engineering Limited is actively involved in maintaining and repairing both land-based and offshore wind assets.

Wind energy sector

The wind energy sector is a critical part of the renewable energy transition, and the reliability and efficiency of wind turbines are key factors in ensuring sustainable power generation. Actively engaged with ETZ to deliver our Fit for Offshore Renewable (F4OR) program.

Here are some general considerations we make for maintaining and repairing both land-based and offshore wind assets:

Regular Inspections

Conduct regular inspections to identify potential issues early on. This includes inspecting towers, foundations, work platforms, flange integrity and other components for wear, damage, or corrosion.

Predictive Maintenance

Utilize predictive maintenance techniques, such as monitoring systems and sensors, to anticipate and address potential failures before they occur. This can help optimize maintenance schedules and reduce downtime.

Gearbox and Generator Maintenance

Gearboxes and generators are critical for power generation. Regularly inspect and maintain these components to prevent failures and ensure efficient energy production.

Environmental Considerations

Offshore wind assets may face more challenging environmental conditions. Consider the impact of saltwater exposure and other marine elements on the equipment and implement corrosion protection measures.

Safety Protocols

Prioritize safety for our maintenance and repair activities, especially for offshore assets where working conditions may be more challenging. Ensure that your team follows industry-standard safety protocols.

Compliance with Regulations

Stay informed about and comply with relevant regulations and standards for wind energy. This includes environmental regulations, safety standards, and any other requirements imposed by regulatory authorities.

Logistics and Access

Consider the logistics of accessing and transporting equipment, especially for offshore assets. Efficient logistics planning can minimize downtime during maintenance activities.

Training and Skill Development

Invest in training and skill development for our team to keep them updated on the latest technologies and best practices in wind energy maintenance.

Collaboration with OEMs

Establish strong collaboration with Original Equipment Manufacturers (OEMs) for equipment support, spare parts, and technical expertise.
