The weather and other factors eat away at your wind turbine blades every day. This can lead to corrosion, affecting the structural integrity of your asset. An uneven blade surface can also slow the speed at which the turbine turns. It can also slow your annual energy production and revenue.
This is why wind turbine coatings play such a key role in protecting your wind farm and investment. Alongside transport and installation damage, weather-related wear and tear is a top cause of wind turbine faults. Preserving your wind farm’s aesthetic appearance is also an important consideration.
Effective coating repairs are complex. They involve expertise in multiple fields, from materials to surface preparation and application. Every step needs to be adapted to your site and conditions. This is where Dangle can help.
We’re members of the Institute of Corrosion (ICORR), the National Association of Corrosion Engineers (NACE) and the Chartered Quality Institute (CQI). We’re also accredited by the Society for Protective Coatings (SSPC) as training providers for ‘train the painter’ programmes. This is a comprehensive set of official certifications. It validates the level of industry recognition for our services.
This means we can take your project from the initial survey and wind turbine paint specification, all the way through to the repair and final paint job. Our services range from spec writing to maintenance plans, blasting and spraying to paint preparation. We also offer coating consultancy, coating failure analysis and dispute resolution.
Dangle works with leading providers of coating products. In this fast-changing industry, we’re constantly learning and innovating. The harshest conditions offer the greatest challenge.
Our comprehensive skill set means that we can ensure compliance with regulatory and industry standards. We can also anticipate the reasons why coatings fail and take appropriate preventative steps. It makes us a dependable single source provider of support services throughout the asset life cycle.
Wind power is a key renewable energy source for the UK. However, annual turbine output can fall by as much as 20% due to inadequate surface protection and maintenance. We understand the important role coating repairs play in safeguarding asset integrity and controlling cost. You can rely on us to work with you to optimise the energy output of your wind farm.
