About The Company
WE EXIST TO MAKE OFFSHORE WIND ENERGY SUSTAINABLE, SAFE, & EFFICIENT
We are high voltage network engineers using specialist people and systems to influence positive change in the renewable energy sector.
Our goal is to create a safer, more sustainable world through intelligent offshore windfarm operations, making assets more efficient and safer, ensuring optimal investment returns, helping to protect the planet from the dangers of global warming and our reliance on fossil fuels.
Our services across high voltage networks include:
Quality Cable Jointing
Efficient Operations
Maintenance & Optimisation
Intelligent Asset Management
High-quality engineering work, building systems that capture information, applying safe and efficient risk models, creating the opportunity for preemptive maintenance work.
Company Culture
Our approach starts with ensuring that design, specification and installation are all high quality, and maximise long-term performance. We do this by having expert people who are held to a rigorous set of delivery standards.
Deploying tried and tested processes, with strategies in place to reduce network downtime, means fewer engineers on-site, and provides tangible safety benefits. By deploying modern asset management techniques, supported with up to date condition data, we can make informed decisions on optimising network performance, therefore maximising generation and associated revenue.
Our monitoring systems follow a 24/7 approach, allowing us to predict and pre-empt faults before they happen, all contributing to maximising generation. In the unlikely event of a failure occurring, we will be ready with fault location analysis and repair solutions to get the network back in service as quickly as possible.
