Renewable Energy (Wind Turbines)
Specialised Blade Inspection and Repair (Blade B Certified)
Wind turbine blades are critical aerodynamic components susceptible to damage from erosion, lightning strikes, fatigue, and environmental factors. We provide expert rope access inspection services to identify damage early. Furthermore, holding the Blade B certification allows us to undertake a range of common blade repairs, helping to maintain aerodynamic efficiency and prevent minor issues from escalating. Inspections cover leading edges, shells, bonding lines, and tips.
Tower Coating and Corrosion Assessments
Wind turbine towers, particularly in offshore or coastal environments, face significant corrosive challenges. Our services include:
-
Detailed inspection of tower coatings to identify breakdown, corrosion, or damage.
-
Assessment of bolted connections, welds, and foundation interfaces.
-
Evaluation of corrosion protection systems (e.g., galvanising, paint systems).
-
Providing reports that support proactive maintenance to ensure the structural integrity and longevity of the tower.
Essential Rope Access Rescue Cover
Safety is paramount during any work conducted at height on wind turbines. We provide essential, competent IRATA Level 3 supervised rope access rescue cover for maintenance teams and other technicians working on turbines. This ensures:
-
A certified and experienced rescue team is on standby.
-
Compliance with Work at Height regulations and site safety requirements.
-
Rapid response capability in the event of an emergency.
-
Increased safety and confidence for personnel performing maintenance and repair tasks.
