Wind Turbine Failure Analysis

Wind Turbine Fire and Failure Analysis

Wind Turbine Fire

Failures of turbines occur by many different modes and the effects range from partial to complete loss of power. When this occurs, wind turbine failures require a rapid, effective failure analysis to help determine the cause, prevent it from recurring, and apply the lessons learned across the fleet. The expert metallurgists and scientists at G2MT Laboratories can help you pinpoint the root cause of the failure and assess possible remedies.

 Our wind turbine consulting and failure analysis services include:
