Cost and Risk Tool for Interim and Preventive Repair (CORTIR)

The purpose of the CORTIR project is to gather the value chain of the wind industry with the goal of reducing the costs and risks concerning wind turbines in the field. During the project a Decision Making Tool will be developed based on the collated experience, tests and theory. In a parallel process a new technology will developed and tested.

Project description

The project ”Cost and Risk Tool for Interim and Preventive Repair” (CORTIR) focuses on costs and risks concerning the operation and maintenance of wind turbine fields. Besides the Wind Turbine Owners (WTOs) also the manufacturers who deliver the blades and provide warranty for the first years and the insurance companies who in many cases pay for damaged assets, will be involved in the discussion on risk and cost.

In the CORTIR project the whole wind industry value chain is included to examine the risk-issue and work on ways to approach risk in a wind turbine field. A software tool will be developed for this task. The Cost and Risk Tool (CAR Tool) will be designed to estimate the specific cost-optimal solution for the maintenance strategy of different wind turbine fields and can be used by the WTOs to choose the best risk-strategy.

In the CORTIR project a solution to lightning damages in the tip, which often results in costly extended downtime for the turbine, will be developed and the effect on cost and risk will be tested in the CAR Tool. Another common blade damage, transverse cracks, will be integrated in the project as a test and calibration case for the CAR Tool.
