    #O&M #supervision #engineering #offshore #comissioning #audit

    about us :

    Founded in 2011, VALEMO (subsidiary of VALOREM) is specialized in operation, maintenance and supervision of renewable energy farms. VALEMO offers operation (performance monitoring), supervision (365/24/7 monitoring of assets), maintenance and engineering services and has set up a Marine Coordination service for the supervision of maritime activities during the construction and operation phases of offshore wind farms. With 145 employees, VALEMO currently monitors 115 renewable energy parks, representing approximately 1.6 GW, in France and internationally.

    Operation of HV substations

    With more than 10 years of experience in the control, operation and maintenance of high voltage (HTA) substations, VALEMO has launched in 2021 its activity of supervision and operation of very high voltage (HTB) substations.

    In this respect, VALEMO’s remote control center is equipped with secure communication infrastructures with RTE (SAS/STS) and its organisation is strengthened with operators on shift on a 24/7/365 basis (5×8 operation).

    Offshore wind O&M services

    Since 2016, VALEMO has developed a business unit dedicated to O&M services for offshore wind.

    Our team of 20+ technicians are fully GWO trained and qualified to perform offshore operations on WTGs and OSS. The operational team is supported by a highly experienced team of staff, project managers, HSE advisor and engineering experts.

    Our team has been mobilized in 2022 to perform quality inspections, commissioning, preventive/corrective maintenance and troubleshooting on the 480MW offshore wind farm of Saint-Nazaire (1st French offshore wind farm).

    Lidar

    Since 2016, VALEMO has developed a state-of-the-art solution to optimise the performance of wind turbines using a LIDAR system.

    Placed on the wind turbine nacelle, the LIDAR is an optical radar that allows wind measurement campaigns, undisturbed by the rotation of the blades.

    With this measurement, it is possible to control the alignment of the nacelles and substantially optimize energy production.

    To carry out its campaigns, VALEMO has joined forces with the recognised skills of the French company EPSILINE, which markets the YawAdvisor LiDAR.

        #RenewableEnergy #WindPower #Offshore #LocalImpact #MultiEnergyExpertise #CommunityEngagement

        about us :

        Since 1994, VALOREM, an independent French operator in green energy has been working to meet the challenge of a sustainable energy future by involving local populations and communities. VALOREM has adopted a multi-energy approach adapted to the specificities of each territory. A pioneer in onshore wind power, the group also has expertise in solar and hydroelectric power, marine renewable energy, offshore wind and hydrogen.
        VALOREM is active in France, Finland, Greece, Poland, Sweden and Romania.

        The 16MW wind farm located in Sainte Rose, North of Basse Terre in Guadeloupe is the first multimegawatt wind farm built in French West Indie, a tropical storm area. Managed by an IA EMS, the wind farm includes 4MW Storage in order to be able to pitch during storms. The park increate the wind power capacity of the island by 53%.

        With its 313,5 MW, VIIATTI is the most important wind project in VALOREM’s history. Located the region Ostrobothnia in Finland, the 27 turbine wind farms will produce 1TWh per year which represents around 1.2% of the Finnish annual electricity consumption.

        The Andilly-les-Marais wind farm by VALOREM showcases innovative shared governance. Local stakeholders, including citizens and municipalities, hold a majority in decision-making, ensuring collective ownership. Its unique model earned the “Énergie Partagée” label, highlighting it as a pioneer in citizen-led renewable energy projects in France.

        #wind_energy #data_analytics #performance_improvment #yaw_misalignment #rotor_imbalance #turbulence_intensity

        about us :

        Epsiline provides IoT and data analytics for optimisation through measurement of Yaw misalignment, Turbulence intensity and Rotor Imbalance, inter alia. These independent measures provide wind turbine productivity improvement, enhanced monitoring and asset life preservation.
         
        The WindEagle is now present on all major continents, including China, Japan, India, Argentina, Brazil, Canada, Africa and throughout Europe, serving owners and operators with independent and high precision information.
         
        Epsiline’s unique approach is done with the WindEagle including a high precision Laser and others sensors: accelerometer, magnetometer, GPS and a meteorological station.
         
        The Laser is focused on measuring the wind directly in front of the blades where the wind matters (LiDAR Doppler technology). Epsiline’s core innovation lies with this compact and affordable LiDAR technology that makes precision accessible for all wind turbines. The WindEagle technology provides an average of 2%+ AEP improvement which leads to a payback time around 6 months. After working with us on several windfarm during one year, a customer can typically improve the revenues of its assessed portfolio of 1 m€+/year.
         
        The WindEagle is an easily installed IoT on the wind turbine nacelle roof (4 installations/day) where live cloud data and analytics provide graphics, intelligible information, and email alerts.

        WindEagle / Yaw Misalignment

        Epsiline’s first focus is to minimize Yaw misalignment as it provides immediate returns when corrected. More than 66% of all wind turbines have substantial Yaw. A 8° Yaw misalignment for a wind turbine corresponds to 3% AEP loss. Within a few days we can identify the importance of static Yaw, correct the offset and then validate the Yaw correction.

        WindEagle / Rotor Imbalance and Tower Frequency

        Epsiline’s WindEagle is equipped with an accelerometer to measure vibrations, allowing for analysis to detect Rotor Imbalance, both aerodynamic and mass.  Correction of rotor imbalance can account for 1% increase in AEP. Measures of tower frequency provide analysis of foundations.

        WindEagle / Turbulence Intensity

        The WindEagle provides precise analytics on Turbulence Intensity on your wind turbine, allowing the implementation of various strategies to mitigate impact and improve productivity, including wake steering control strategy.

        Other applications include: True North correction, Icing Conditions and Comparative Power curves for performance analysis.
