As we head into the new year, the Energy Team at Uptake made some predictions (it's what we do) about what's in store for the wind industry in 2018.
- More owners will move to active self-direct or to self perform.
- Turbine manufacturers will continue to consolidate.
- Use of data to improve operations and maintenance will grow exponentially.
- Intelligence and complexity of wind turbine control systems will continue to increase.
- Consulting firms and independent engineers will expand their presence in the wind software market.
- Owners will expect greater value from a smaller number of advanced data analytics systems.
Whatever your predictions are for the new year, we wish you a prosperous and healthy 2018!
