The technological solution that provides real-time alerts and accurate information about lightning strikes on wind turbines
Wind turbines are prone to lightning strikes due to their characteristics and locations. Sensorisation, telecommunications and digital platforms facilitate optimal management of wind turbine maintenance in the event of a lightning strike.
WIND TURBINE SMART LIGHTNING LOGGER is the smart system for real-time warning and registration of lightning strikes, which is installed on the blades of wind turbines and uses IoT communication to report the impact and its characteristics at the moment it occurs.
WIND TURBINE SMART LIGHTNING LOGGER, developed and patented by Aplicaciones Tecnológicas S.A., monitors lightning strikes in real-time to identify damage to the blades avoiding significant economic losses.
Advantages of the system
REAL-TIME LIGHTNING
STRIKE ALERTS
The monitoring of electrical activity on the blades allows alerting at the exact moment of impact and thus facilitates immediate inspections and early repairs, which saves significant costs.
ACCURATE LIGHTNING
CURRENT INFORMATION
Determine urgency and type of response required, as well as provide objective data in case of an incident.
CONTROL OF
MULTIPLE INSTALLATIONS
A permanent monitoring of facilities distributed in different locations with centralised data.
WIND TURBINE SMART LIGHTNING LOGGER operation
WIND TURBINE SMART LIGHTNING LOGGER provides real-time lightning strike alerts in a centralised way and through IoT communication for one or multiple facilities.
Each registered data is transferred via IoT communication to the secure and redundant AT-CLOUD data centre where it is processed and transformed into useful information for the user.
Data collection
Continuous monitoring of electrical activity on wind turbine blades where WIND TURBINE SMART LIGHTNING LOGGER is installed.
Accurate diagnostics
Local data is sent to the AT-CLOUD where expert algorithms process it to provide real-time lightning strike alerts and accurate lightning current information.
Objective multi-channel alerts
The processed information is sent to the user via the CONNECT platform. This enables immediate inspections (to determine the urgency and type of response), early repairs and analysis in the event of an incident.
Economical savings in blade maintenance
WIND TURBINE SMART LIGHTNING LOGGER provides accurate lightning current information to determine the urgency and type of response required, as well as providing objective information in the event of an incident.
Immediate inspections
Real-time alerts allow to carry out on-the-spot inspections and to act promptly. Repairs can be started almost immediately after damage assessment.
Huge cost savings
Early identification of slight damage, which is extremely difficult to detect without WIND TURBINE SMART LIGHTNING LOGGER, and its rapid repair prevents future damage escalation.
Model validation
The information about the magnitude of lightning strikes that hit the wind turbine without visible damage is a definitive argument for the quality and reliability of the wind turbine.
