Surveillance
Secure monitoring and control 24 hours a day, 365 days a year.

To ensure your wind farm operates as effectively as possible, you need to monitor and control its performance at all times, and be able to respond quickly if problems arise – even if the turbines are on a remote hillside or many kilometres out to sea.

This is where Vestas’ unique Supervisory Control And Data Acquisition (SCADA) system called VestasOnline® comes in. SCADA combines cutting edge computer hardware and software with state-of-the-art technology in turbine management systems to deliver unrivalled diagnostics and control.

SCADA helps maximise the output of a wind power plant, within safe operating limits, through precise monitoring and up-to-the-minute data. It enables you to adjust plant settings, diagnose and correct problems, and shut down or start up turbines from a PC hundreds of kilometres away.
