Service | Data Driven Equipment Analysis
Our algorithms process wind farm data, analyze incident occurrences, and correlate them with wind and production records to identify the components (pitch, alarms, generator, etc.) responsible for underperformance. Our team audits and assists in the development of several hundred megawatts annually, both in project phases and in operation.
Our Data Driven Equipment Audit can be provided once, during a due diligence, or at the end of the guarantee period to ensure no Defects Liability Period (DLP) issues have been overlooked. It can also be provided as a regular service, based on monthly reports, to ensure Operations & Maintenance (O&M) is properly conducted and to optimize preventive maintenance strategies.

Understanding the root causes of downtime in wind farms is crucial for asset managers, acquirers, O&M managers, financiers, and insurers.
Our services connect directly to SCADA or existing data systems, providing detailed month-by-month, year-by-year availability metrics - both contractual and total. To deliver its audits, WindDeep uses its unique extra intuitive application that identify, categorize, and reassign, when required, downtime responsibilities - from subcontractors to environmental factors - with just a swipe or click.
WindDeep offers an effective solution for managing and understanding availability, significantly reducing the potential for disputes over recorded downtime and enhancing the balance of information between operators and maintenance providers.

95% Availability Verification Audit for Onshore and Offshore Wind Farms
Availability is the proportion of time during which a turbine, or the wind farm as a whole, is technically capable of producing electricity. Current offshore wind farms typically achieve an availability of 90% to 95%. Onshore wind farms, which have much lower O&M costs, usually achieve higher availability, around 97%. Most of the time, this availability rate is guaranteed by the manufacturer (Vestas, Nordex, Enercon...) or an O&M provider.
Incidents considered for the downtime count are usually subject to negotiation both at the time of the contract and during ongoing monitoring. Our team provides expertise, advice, and extremely useful analytical tools to support negotiations and verifications.
WindDeep Solutions for Availability Tracking
An independent verification of the maintenance contractor’s adherence to contractual availability commitments, such as the commonly agreed 90% or 95%, is crucial for ensuring fair and precise performance assessments. This is vital not only for assessing past performance but also for setting realistic expectations and benchmarks for future operations.
WindDeep’s proprietary tool, the "WindDeep Availability Tracker," simplifies the monitoring and verification process of these commitments. This powerful yet user-friendly application does not require extensive training and enables asset managers, technicians, and even the maintenance contractors themselves to track downtime incidents, identify responsibilities, and facilitate negotiations. It makes the data about incidents comprehensible and transparent, highlighting whether downtimes are due to the owner, the contractor, or force majeure.
Regular Oversight
The Independent Contractual Availability Audit provides thorough due diligence, covers end of warranty periods, or supports refinancing phases. Additionally, our team offers periodic audits as a form of regular oversight, providing crucial support for owners. These services include monthly data reviews and operational checks, requiring minimal client involvement. All information is presented clearly and intelligibly, ensuring owners can easily understand and use the data provided.
Service | Strategic Assessment of Economic Value and Production
This service offers a detailed analysis of the economic potential of wind farms, surpassing traditional approaches focused on production probabilities such as P50 or P90.
Instead of traditionally analyzing a wind farm's potential for optimization, financing, or insurance, why not also consider, particularly if the farm does not benefit from a guaranteed purchase rate, its pure economic value? Over the years and through multiple due diligences, we have observed that while the production potential study is essential, it provides only partial information about the economic value of a farm. Some farms produce during off-peak hours and others operate at full capacity during peak hours, sometimes making spot market sales more advantageous than the initial purchase rate.
Our precise analysis of prices and economic values captured by wind farms allows us to provide a solid basis for anticipating future revenues and associated risks. Furthermore, it is also a necessary step in a hedging and balancing strategy on a portfolio of productive assets, in order to analyze "economic" intermittency and properly size the flexibility needs on a given market.
