Wind Farm Monitoring And Control Conference 2014

Windpower Monthly  is pleased to announce our Wind Farm Monitoring & Control conference, being held on the 4th & 5th of June.

The event will focus on monitoring technologies, control systems and data handling to facilitate a holistic view of wind farm performance. See the full programme here .

Register for this two day conference to gain insight into how to integrate control systems and reduce costs with increased monitoring capabilities.

Key topics in the agenda include:

• Iberwind's approach to widening wind farm control to optimise reliability 
• How  TRE-FOR Energi  achieved vertical integration of its control systems
• Parkwind NV's lessons learnt from building a monitoring tool for more accurate offshore supervision
• Best practice in rating turbines for optimal power output 
• Nordex shares the latest methods in remote monitoring for better turbine health and production

The conference will be unique in its focus on the software, hardware and systems design that best enable the wind industry to optimise the performance, and reduce the operational costs, of its assets.
