Brake maintenance on offshore turbines is no small task, especially when working with heavy components in confined spaces high above the sea. To simplify the process, Svendborg Brakes, a Regal Rexnord brand, has developed the LBS Yaw Brake Lifting Tool.
|
 |
|
|
Designed for use uptower, the tool allows technicians to safely remove and reinstall yaw brake calipers with minimal manual handling. By cutting replacement time by up to 50% and reducing physical strain, it supports faster, safer servicing in challenging offshore conditions. The tool is already being used to streamline maintenance across large-scale turbine fleets.

Maintaining offshore wind platforms is notoriously challenging. Remote locations, harsh weather and complex logistics pose continuous safety and operational risks for personnel. When a fire/arc event occurs inside a nacelle, critical diagnostic information is often lost, and crews are left uncertain about the failure's cause or required parts until after inspection.

Machine-learning-enabled thermal imaging solutions are addressing these issues. Bi-spectral cameras, like SYTIS’ TC-90™, provide clear images and remote, real-time visibility into electrical enclosures. These miniaturized cameras fit inside nacelles and, powered by POE, offer a holistic view of components, connections and wiring. They detect micro-failures—like pinhole leaks in hydraulic lines—before they escalate. Shifting from time-based to condition-based maintenance enables earlier interventions, historical trend analysis and more resilient and efficient operations while reducing the need for high-risk manual inspections. For more information – read the case study by Ryan Severe, Senior Engineer for Wind Assets at Puget Sound Energy. |

Deployed for a number of months in the Western Cape, the TM is providing critical insights into complex wind conditions affecting turbine performance and maintenance. Nico Lombard, Asset Manager at Globeleq South Africa Management Services added: “The ZX TM wind Lidar has been operational on this complex site for several months to date and we are delighted to have already identified some areas for improvement. The ZX TM helps analyse wind shear, turbulence intensity, and directional changes, providing a deeper understanding of wind behaviour at the site. This information is crucial for optimising turbine performance and minimizing mechanical stress.” |

The 52nd Albuquerque International Balloon Fiesta took flight in October 2024, with advanced weather technology to ensure the safety and success of its ballooning operations. The event, which brought together hundreds of hot air balloons from around the world, saw Radiometrics deploy the Radiometrics Mobile SkyCast® Balloon Weather Decision Support System, featuring the ZX 300 Doppler wind Lidar. This state-of-the-art technology was crucial in delivering real-time weather insights, providing detailed wind profiling, and enhancing decision-making during the festival’s critical operations.

For nearly a decade, the integration of ZX Lidars technology into Equans’ Meteorological Monitoring Module has played a pivotal role in improving the safety and efficiency of offshore wind farm operations. The ZX 300M wind Lidar is strategically deployed on existing offshore substations, utilising infrastructure already in place to minimise additional setup costs and complexity.
|
 |
|
|
This Lidar-enabled approach enhances safety for personnel whilst also providing the opportunity to optimise turbine performance and site operations. The Lidar data also supports continual power curve assessments, benchmarking turbine performance against expected output. Early detection of performance anomalies allows operators to plan and execute maintenance proactively, reducing unplanned downtime and optimising resource allocation.
