+44 (0)207 099 0600Placing Operations and Maintenance at the Forefront of your Business Strategy
The meeting place for critical discussions on how to make rational decisions that reduce the cost of your operations, increase the power performance of your wind fleet, and make the business connections to achieve these aims.
With the US Senate voting in March against an extension of the wind Production Tax Credit (PTC) beyond the end of 2012, the development prospects for new wind farms are uncertain. For owner-operators, this puts an increasing impetus on maximizing the revenue from their existing wind farms, whilst for OEMs and service providers, a slow-down in new development will produce increased competition in the after-sales market, and drive the need for providing higher value O&M services.
