Why use our drivetrain service?
Insurance Market:
Wind Power LAB plays a crucial role in supporting insurers by conducting Root Cause Analysis (RCA) in the event of a claim. If damage occurs, WPL can identify the failure development and determine whether the operator took the necessary precautions through proper maintenance and asset management. By verifying whether the operator had an effective condition-based maintenance strategy in place, WPL helps assess whether a claim is justified. This assistance reduces uncertainty in claim processing and helps establish a clear, data-driven risk assessment.
