Irene and Jim Fowlie enlisted Gael Energy to revive their 50 kW AOC turbine in Mintlaw. The Rengineers turbine, inactive for two years, was successfully replaced with a BestWatt turbine.
back to project overviewThis installation was backed by a market-leading ‘Garant’ Operations and Maintenance contract, a strategic alliance that sees Gael Energy support Rengineers in rolling it out to wind farm operators across the country. Rengineers’ ground-breaking Garant contract ensures that all conceivable costs associated with wind turbine maintenance are covered by an annual fixed fee, with operators being compensated in full for any loss of earnings beyond a 48-hour shutdown period.
‘With our ‘Garant’ contract and BestWatt installation, we’re not just powering turbines; we’re driving innovation and sustainability in renewables.’
Hamish Campbell, Gael Energy’s Managing Director, added: “Completing our first-ever BestWatt installation marks a significant milestone for Gael Energy. It’s not just about powering turbines; it’s about powering innovation and sustainability in the renewable energy sector. Irene and Jim’s site, now equipped with the BestWatt turbine, serves as a shining example of repowering small turbines like Harbon, AOC, and Endurance, and it also showcases the future with new BW80 installations.”
