SKF and Boralex jointly announce the co-development of a new solution for wind turbine operators named 'Wind Reliability Dashboard'. This combines data from multiple sources, including condition monitoring and manufacturing information for spare parts, allowing operators to optimise the efficiency of each wind farm, as well as improving reliability and predictability of defaults. Gothenburg, Sweden, 29 August, 2019: SKF is developing, in partnership with Boralex - a leader in the Canadian market and France's largest independent producer of onshore wind power - a new dashboard to help wind farm operators optimize the proficiency of wind turbines.

The dashboard will also improve operators ability to reduce costs and make long term planning decisions based on in-depth data drawn from a range of critical sources; these include condition monitoring systems, estimated remaining useful life and the lead-time of replacement parts. The Wind Reliability Dashboard is an evolution of SKF's current condition monitoring and predictive maintenance tools. It extends existing capabilities by allowing data to be captured and analysed from all forms of rotating systems in each turbine, from both SKF and other CMS providers (Condition Monitoring System).
