A Smarter, Joined-Up Approach to Onshore Wind Lifetime Extension
At Xi Engineering Consultants, we believe in engineering that delivers long-term value. That’s why we’re proud to announce the launch of a new Lifetime Extension and Through-Life Management Service for Onshore Wind — developed in partnership with ERIKS Industrial Services and 1StopWind.
This service brings together advanced simulation, hands-on inspection and repair, and predictive digital tools — offering a fully integrated, data-driven solution to maximise the life, reliability, and performance of onshore wind turbines.
We’ll be showcasing this new service at All-Energy 2025, Stand D28, at the SEC in Glasgow on 14–15 May 2025.
Built for Asset Owners. Designed for the Real World.
As nearly a third of the UK’s onshore wind fleet reaches the end of its design life, owners face complex decisions around risk, performance, and return on investment. This collaboration provides a clear path forward — one rooted in practical engineering and underpinned by cutting-edge technology.
Working together, the Xi, ERIKS, and 1StopWind teams offer:
• Condition monitoring, inspection and repair, including yaw gearboxes, generator rewind, blade damage, and bolt tensioning
• Digital Twin development, using SCADA and operational data to deliver turbine-specific Remaining Useful Life (RUL) projections
• Structural and dynamic simulation, including aeroelastic and finite element models
• Predictive analytics powered by machine learning algorithms trained on real-world data
This joined-up approach replaces fragmented, reactive turbine management with a coordinated, proactive strategy — supporting long-term reliability, safety, and sustainability.
An End-to-End Solution for Turbine Longevity
Our new offering is more than the sum of its parts. It’s a through-life service built to support every stage of turbine operation:
• Early diagnosis of component fatigue and failure risk
• Informed, data-led maintenance planning
• Asset management aligned with compliance and ROI
• Support for life extension to 30, 35, or even 40 years
Whether you operate legacy assets or next-generation turbines, this service gives you the visibility and confidence to plan ahead — reducing downtime, protecting revenue, and driving investment certainty.
Meet Us at All-Energy 2025
We’ll be at Stand D28 throughout the event, ready to discuss how our combined services can support the long-term success of your onshore wind portfolio.
Come and speak to us about:
• How Digital Twins can unlock predictive insights
• Why real-world repair expertise matters for lifetime extension
• How you can move from reactive to strategic turbine management
This collaboration represents a smarter way forward for the wind industry — bringing together deep expertise, proven methods, and innovative tools to deliver measurable outcomes.
