As the world races to meet the urgent demands of climate change, wind energy stands at the forefront, poised to provide a significant portion of global power by 2030. Yet, behind the scenes, a battle against physics is being waged to ensure these giants not only stand tall but also align perfectly with the winds of progress. As installation of onshore and offshore wind energy continues at a breakneck pace, the demands on the supply chain have risen. Multiple sourcing of wind turbine components is rapidly becoming the norm as organisations grapple with tight project deadlines and limited sources of component supply. As a direct result, issues related to non-conformities are becoming more common.
