Smartive has secured a contract with Acciona to monitor 1,000 of its wind turbines. The initial engagement will run for a year, with the option to extend.
Over the period Smartive will examine 15% of Acciona’s global wind fleet to predict technical problems before they arise and tackle current maintenance issues. Its technology will provide Acciona with data that will reveal where problems exist or could occur, improving the operation of turbines and reducing maintenance costs. Smartive’s technology provides data from real-time monitoring through a variety of IIOT and cloud platforms that can identify turbine problems. The company joined InnoEnergy’s Highway programme in 2016, which supports early stage start-ups in their go to market phase, and is now scaling up its business.
