However, with bigger turbines come bigger challenges during installation, commissioning and maintenance.
One area that the industry has yet to deal with sufficiently is the restriction imposed by wind speed limits and seasonal limitations. Too often, installation and maintenance are severely delayed by weather-related downtime.
This leads to inefficient processes and costly overruns, which plays a large part in pushing up the LCoE — a situation that will improve only if work can be carried out at higher wind speeds and throughout the year.
