Our upgrade packs are tailored to each given blade design, focussing on additional power with minimal changes in thrust. Each pack is designed to operate with significant safety margins. Our upgrade packs have successfully undergone numerous technical reviews by wind farm owners, third party specialists such as DNV-GL and turbine OEMs and have been proven to safely operate on the turbines.
Our ability to improve AEP has also been scrutinised by third parties, including UK consultants Natural Power who were appointed to measure the AEP uplift of one of upgrade packs on a project supported by the Offshore Renewable Catapult and concluded that the pack improved AEP by 5.7%.
In addition to increasing AEP, many of the Anakata parts have been designed to deliver other benefits including reducing wake losses from turbine blades, reducing unsteady loads on blades thereby providing life extension benefits, and improving the lightning protection of blades.
Our focus is on integrating the wind turbine OEM experience in our team with materials specialists and aerodynamic excellence to deliver solutions that are unmatched in improving blade performance in the wind turbine industry.
