Acciona Energía and Sentient Science have reached an agreement with the common aim for the life extension the entire fleet of wind turbines of Acciona. The agreement covers the possible use and validation by Acciona of Sentient’s DigitalClone Live technology to anticipate possible failures in key components of wind turbines years before they occur.
DigitalClone Live is based on software that creates digital clones of each turbine model and is able to predict the risk of current and future failure of the main components and their expected working life, based on operational data provided by the wind power operator. The company is firmly committed to improving the efficiency of its turbines and extending their working life beyond the 20-25 years usually applied in the sector.
