Panel Discussion: Why Do Asset Management And Data Go Hand In Hand?

This panel will aim to clarify how data should be used to better understand how assets perform, determine the best strategies to capture energy and influence contractual obligations from service providers. The panel will consider thoughtful and provocative questions around how turbines should really perform and discuss what approaches are still not quite up to scratch. We will then delve into life extension opportunities through a smart use of data based on due diligence support and advanced control techniques.
