The wind industry partially repowered over 12 gigawatts of land-based wind energy facilities in the U.S. between 2015–2021. While the focus on repowering has traditionally been centered around market drivers and economics, this report highlights how to ensure the work is done safely.
In this report, you’ll find lessons learned for development, construction, and operation of repowered facilities from the companies who have done the work. ACP hopes that by sharing these experiences more broadly, we can help with the industry’s continuous improvement on safety performance.
