Blacklaw, a 54 turbine wind farm owned by ScottishPower and Scottish and Southern’s 52 turbine project at Hadyard Hill. Both have 2 test turbines and protocols for testing all turbines developed in conjunction with SgurrEnergy. This experienced team has been completing PPA’s on wind farms for over 10 years. Paul McFarlane Technical Services Manager commented, “this service confirms compliance with contractual warranties and identifies any underperforming turbines. We provide the comfort and reassurance that the wind farm and investment is performing to the specification criteria within the contracts.” To facilitate this SgurrEnergy draw on their in-house expertise in, mast installation and instrumentation, data analysis and management, layout assessment, control and instrumentation and project management.
SgurrEnergy’s extensive experience and well developed analytical tools provide the ideal platform to offer developers a full turnkey solution managing the entire testing process, negotiating performance warranties, testing methodologies with turbine suppliers and due diligence services.
