Renewable Energy Industry

Renewable energy sources are stronger than ever. Hydroelectric power is making exciting bounds in innovation pushing wave power toward commercial reality, solar power is rapidly growing and the capacity of wind installations is doubling every five years. In your work to advance the adoption of wind, solar, water and wave technologies, AVT Reliability BV (formerly Van Geffen Reliability) can support you with innovative and efficient solutions.

The importance of assets in the (renewable) energy

The (renewable) industry is characterised by the criticality of the equipment. In contrast to peripheral equipment, which is often redundant, a power plant, an (offshore) windmill, etc. only has one driveline (generator). Standstill of this unit has an undeniable influence on the production capacity and repairs are often accompanied by long delivery times for materials and skilled people. The costs of unplanned downtime in this industry are significant.

The role AVT Reliability plays in the (renewable) energy

AVT Reliability utilises the latest technology and diagnostic measurement tools to keep a variety of power generation equipment running smoothly and provides a broad range of (remote) field measurements for natural gas turbines, steam turbines, generators, reciprocating compressor and other power plant machinery.

Precision maintenance, such as balancing, alignment, etc. is therefore of great importance in this industry. Reliable monitoring of these machines therefore also has the highest priority.
