Analysis
- O&M1 seems to be again best in class for this portfolio. A study could be performed comparing the difference in the wind turbine price during the investment of the wind farm and the difference in availability / performance of those wind farms to estimate if that investment is worth it or not.
- For this particular portfolio a special attention should be paid to the “Grid Outages” and the “Other Downtimes”.
- “Grid Outages” are specially high in the UK, we would here recommend to review the grid connection agreements in those problematic farms.
- For the “Other Downtimes” the problem comes mainly from Germany. This should be investigated in depth by the TM.
- More generally, the portfolio overall figures of availability and downtimes show an under-performance.
