#WindWebinar
DigitalClone® is a “Small Data” Approach to Determine Component & System Failure Rates
➡ When bearings enter failure, it happens very fast, minutes, hours, days.➡ That fast failure causes failure in other expensive components.➡ Save the bearing and you get life extension and a larger payback than Big Data.
#WindWebinar
Operators & Suppliers will know the earliest point in time when critical components will begin to fail & have options to extend life
#WindWebinar
This Means You Now Have Much More Information on Asset Life, Life Extension, Financial Impact

Life Extension & MarketingUtilizing Life Extension
Case #1: Prepare Proposal
Most likely strategy:1-3 Bearing Uptower Repair to offset cost of gearbox replacement contingent
upon physical inspection
Potential life extension is realized if…• Bearing replacement projected to add 110 months• Justifiable total repair price up to 9 years x 4000 mWh x $70 (avg. PPA price)• Suggests there is a large price tunnel for negotiation
