United Kingdom - 23/09/08 Onshore and offshore wind farm projects – client seminar by SGS in the UK SGS, the global leader and innovator in inspection, verification, testing and certification services, organises a seminar on actual wind energy topics on the 20th October in London, UK, focusing on the technology and risks of onshore and offshore wind farm projects. For stakeholders in wind energy, one of the main concerns is the availability of wind turbines and the reliability of the structures which depend on various factors. A minor failure can cause undesirable down time, which affects key stakeholders such as manufacturers, owners, investors and insurance companies. This Seminar will explain the potential risks involved in wind farm projects which may cause down time in energy generation, provide a Case Study on how to execute a successful wind farm project , and advise how SGS can help to alleviate the risks of unacceptable down time and loss, in order to maximise the earnings through independent certification and inspection services. Another important part of the Seminar will be about how stakeholders can maximise their profits by minimising the risks in wind farm projects. This main focus covers a wide range of topics from selection of the right technology and design etc., to best practices in manufacturing, installation, commissioning, and in-service inspections of wind turbines. The presentations will have clear and concise technical information that will highlight the risks involved in the design, manufacturing, installation, commissioning and maintenance phases of wind farm projects. Who Should Attend? Key stakeholders can greatly benefit from the valuable information provided on risk management. The Seminar is designed for those companies with a vested interest in both onshore and offshore wind farm projects. Schedule This all day event will include morning and afternoon presentations and discussions, and lunch and dinner functions. Download the detailed Wind Energy Seminar Programme (PDF 752 KB).
