For each wind and solar project, we focus on O&M cost and performance goals, to continually:
optimize/increase annual energy (kWh) production of each project. identify and implement effective methods to optimize and reduce O&M costs. develop/increase the O&M skills and capabilities of our employees, resulting in superior performance and technical skills.
Based upon our proven track record, PowerWorks’ wind projects historically perform at over 98% availability — typically the best performance in the wind industry for its wind turbine classes.
