Fire safety should be a top priority for all wind farm operators. The industry’s journey towards comprehensive protection against fire begins with FRAs.
As the size of wind turbines increases, so does the risks. A fire in any turbine is devastating, but the impacts are more significant as they get larger.
A comprehensive wind turbine fire assessment of a project is important but effectively using collected information and sharing with stakeholders is vital.
A wind turbine fire can result in several hours of downtime across the entire wind farm and put the affected turbine out of commission for over a year.
There are various fire suppression agents on the market and some are better suited to wind turbines than others and clean agents are optimal for turbines.
