Wind Turbine Generator Windings: Critical Challenges and Smart Solutions for Renewable Energy Systems
Wind turbine generator windings form the beating heart of renewable energy conversion, yet 23% of turbine downtime stems from winding-related failures according to a 2023 Global Wind Energy Council report. As turbines grow larger (some now reaching 15MW capacity), operators face mounting challenges in maintaining these copper or aluminum nerve centers. But what's really causing these expensive failures, and how can we fix them?
