My WES30 Installation

The big moment, installation and commissioning of your WES30.

After months and sometimes even years of preparation everything is installed on site and your WES30 starts to produce its first profitable and clean energy. The installation of a WES30 wind turbine is something special, often local press is invited to cover the event.

WES30 wind turbines can be installed and put into service within a week. Your WES dealer takes care of project management and makes sure all the right people are on site and are prepared for their job. If needed WES engineers come over to supervise the installation and assist with the commissioning of your WES30.

During the first part of the installation the tower segments are connected and are placed on the foundation. During the next step the nacelle, rotor and blades are assembled and placed on top of the tower. All bolts and nuts get the right predefined torque to make sure the mechanical dynamics of the structure is within specs.

The electrical and Internet part comes last. Before putting the WES30 in full operation all electrical connections from turbine to control cabinet and grid have to be made and tested. During commissioning all systems and subsystems are tested, special attention is paid to the safety systems.

Within 500 hours after commissioning a maintenance job is done on site to complete the installation. After this "first 500 hour maintenance job" regular maintenance and monitoring over the Internet done by your dealer makes sure your WES30 keeps producing clean electricity for more than 20 years.
