At Renewable Inspections, we offer retrofitting services for wind turbine blades. Our team uses rope access techniques to install a range of components designed to improve turbine performance and extend blade life. The services listed below are just a few of the solutions we offer. If you require any other retrofitting services, please don’t hesitate to contact us to discuss your specific needs.
Vortex Generators
Installed on turbine blades to improve airflow and reduce drag, helping to increase efficiency.
Serrations
Added to the trailing edges of blades to reduce noise and improve airflow stability.
Spoilers
Installed to modify airflow across the blade, improving performance during high wind conditions.
Rainshields
Installed to prevent water from running into the nose cone and hub area, protecting internal components from moisture-related damage and reducing the risk of corrosion.
LPS Receptors
Retrofitted to replace burned or disconnected receptors on the blade, restoring continuity to the lightning protection system and ensuring proper channeling of lightning strikes away from the blade and through the grounding system.
LPS Cables
Retrofitted to maintain the continuity of the LPS system, preventing breakage and ensuring safe dissipation of lightning energy through the grounding system.
Drain Holes
Installed to allow water and debris to drain from the blades, preventing water build-up and potential catastrophic damage to the tips.
