Remote wind management

Gamesa and the Iberdrola Group have launched a wind sector-pioneering system that enables the remote management, using a single interface, of any make of wind turbine anywhere in the world. Leveraging both firms’ know-how and experience in the wind sector, the new system called WindCORE + WindOne allows operators to control and monitor this class of renewable facilities from a distance, analyze their operating data, and generate reports with a view to optimizing their electricity output. Indispensable for real-time supervising the multiple variables that can affect a wind farm’s operations—from wind speed to turbine temperature, intensity, and production—the system works from a single control center. In addition, the WindCORE + WindOne system is capable of operating turbines made by any manufacturer, doing away with the need for a different software program for each technology brand.
