Commissioning and In-Service Inspection offered by SGS includes Commissioning Services, Final Acceptance Inspection, Periodic In-Service Inspections as well as Pre Warranty and End of Warranty Inspection, which are indispensable for the successful operation of any wind farm. SGS has implemented a combination of high-end specialized consultancy with traditional inspection and testing services to assist clients in the routine maintenance of their wind farms.
Another relevant service for wind farm owners provided by SGS is Wind Farm Project Certification. SGS helps to minimize the technical project risk by providing independent and site-specific assessment and certification of wind farm projects, both onshore and offshore, as well as the inspection and testing of critical components such as rotor blades, gearboxes and towers. Furthermore, SGS offers certification services for each phase of a wind farm project to ensure that the wind farm will perform successfully throughout its intended lifetime.
Attendees will also have the chance to learn more about SGS Design Verification. To ensure that a wind farm project fulfils the applicable regulatory or client-specific requirements and operates as intended, SGS verifies that the design is in accordance with proven industry standards and meets given requirements for operational, safety and environmental performance. With an appropriate scheme, Design Verification by SGS provides confidence that a wind farm is designed to the required standards, criteria and legislation with regard to material selection, design and safety level following a structured development process.
During this five-day event visitors are welcome ask questions and to discuss any aspects of the various services offered for the wind energy sector with SGS experts.
