RAMS-database for Wind Turbines. Pre-study

Abstract

A quickly growing sector of electricity production is wind power. Increased knowledge related to many aspects of wind power is highly in demand and reliability aspects is one area where a lot of activity is performed worldwide. This report discusses one important aspect for improving reliability of wind turbines - reliability data. The report contains an outlook to see what is being done in this area and where good examples may be found. What can we learn from inside and outside the wind industry? Assuming a reliability database will be designed and implemented - what are the possible options between which we can make a choice? If option A is selected then what are the consequences of that, option B etc? A set of recommendations is also made with 2 possible levels of ambition. One conclusion from this report is that such a database, if created, should be designed to support maintenance and more precisely Reliability-Centred Maintenance RCM (or similar). Other possible users of such data can use this maintenance-related data. Apart from maintenance use, a few examples are given in the report on the benefits of such a database. In all considerations on technical solutions or alternative investments, reliability  More>>
