Wind Turbine Operations and Maintenance Market - Industry Analysis, Forecast 2023
Wind turbine operations and maintenance (O&M) service providers are involved in the operation, maintenance, troubleshooting, and repair of wind turbines installed at offshore wind farms. Wind turbine O&M services also constitute scheduled maintenance, unscheduled maintenance, remote monitoring, and asset administration. Some of the major breakdown-prone components of wind turbines include gear boxes, generators, rotor blades, drive trains, and brakes. While selecting an O&M approach, independent service providers (ISPs), wind turbine manufacturers (OEMs), and in-house O&M teams have emerged in the sector. Wind farms have been broadly classified into onshore and offshore wind farms on the basis of the location or the area of installation of wind turbines. Generally, downtime caused due to wind turbine component failure is more at offshore wind farms as compared to onshore wind farms owing to the harsher weather conditions and logistical hurdles.
