Renewing Bird Detection Systems at Lévigny Wind Farm 🌿

At CGN Europe Energy, renewing our bird detection systems (BDS) is an opportunity to upgrade our equipment and explore the range of available technologies.

At Lévigny Wind Farm, the previous system was replaced with SafeWind, developed by Biodiv-Wind, following the cessation of operations of our former supplier.

Using cameras and AI-powered image analysis, this solution ensures the continuity of our bird detection capabilities.

This replacement is also part of our broader approach to technological diversification. Working with different suppliers allows us to explore different technologies, compare solutions and better address the specific needs of our wind farms.

Thank you to all the teams involved for their work and contribution to protecting biodiversity at our sites.

Step by step, CGNEE is strengthening its in-house maintenance capabilities and developing an increasingly autonomous, responsive and efficient Site Support team.

With the arrival of two wind turbine maintenance technicians, our Site Support team is further strengthening its skills and ability to carry out interventions directly on site.

Recent interventions across our French wind farms demonstrate this progress in action. From remote diagnostics and fault troubleshooting to component replacement, the team is progressively taking on more maintenance activities in-house. During the latest intervention, replacing a defective main power circuit breaker enabled a turbine to be returned to service promptly.

With every intervention, we gain experience, strengthen our expertise and take another step towards increasingly autonomous and efficient maintenance operations.

The role of our France Operations Control Centre (OCC) has evolved. Traditionally focused on monitoring wind farms and supporting their day-to-day operation, the team now plays a more active role in managing production in response to electricity market signals.

The Balancing Mechanism plays an important role in maintaining the balance between electricity supply and demand. As electricity must be balanced in real time, the French electricity system operator can request adjustments to generation when needed. When supply exceeds demand, reducing generation can help restore this balance and maintain the stability of the electricity system.

For our wind farms, this means that production can be temporarily curtailed when requested through the mechanism. Beyond responding to wind conditions and equipment availability, our assets can therefore contribute to the flexibility needed to balance the grid.

Implementing these instructions requires close coordination between the OCC, market teams and technical specialists. The OCC translates market instructions into operational actions, monitors their implementation and ensures that production resumes at the appropriate time, in accordance with the applicable instructions and operating constraints.

As the mechanism gradually extends to more of our wind farms, the OCC has become an increasingly important link between electricity markets and our renewable energy assets.

By translating market signals into operational action, our teams contribute to electricity grid balancing while supporting the operational and economic performance of our wind farms.

In the day-to-day operation of a wind farm, grounds maintenance may seem like a secondary activity. However, it plays a practical role in keeping sites accessible, safe and operational.

Around turbines and other equipment, managing vegetation helps keep access routes clear, facilitate maintenance activities and ensure suitable and safe working conditions for our teams.

At CGNEE, some of these activities are now carried out in-house. This allows us to be more autonomous and responsive to everyday needs on site, while making maintenance activities more flexible and closely aligned with the realities on the ground.

A practical approach that contributes to keeping our wind farms accessible, safe and functional, while making better use of the resources available on our sites.
Thank you to our teams for their commitment and coordination in the field.

Standards play an essential role in the way we carry out our activities every day.

At CGN Europe Energy, requirements relating to quality, environmental protection, and occupational health and safety are an integral part of the operation and maintenance of our wind and solar assets. On the ground, this means managing risks, following procedures, preventing incidents, monitoring environmental impacts, and continuously improving our practices.

These efforts are notably supported by our compliance with ISO 9001, ISO 14001 and ISO 45001. Beyond the standards themselves, it is their practical application by our teams every day that brings these requirements to life and helps us continuously improve our practices.

Thank you to all our teams who contribute every day to maintaining these standards and making our operations safer, more responsible and more efficient.

The smooth operation of a wind farm also depends on paying attention to the very practical needs on the ground.

Recently, at our Estinnes wind farm in Belgium, our teams carried out a coordinated waste collection and maintenance operation across several areas of the site.

The work involved removing waste and soil, cleaning the areas concerned, and installing barriers to secure access to the wind turbines.

Rather than carrying out several separate interventions, the teams brought together multiple needs as part of a single mobilisation. By making use of the internal resources available, they were able to optimise the time spent on site and take the opportunity to carry out additional maintenance work nearby.

Good organisation helps us make better use of available resources, reduce repeated interventions and improve day-to-day efficiency. This is a simple but concrete example of how our teams are progressively strengthening their in-house capabilities and contributing to the safe and efficient operation of our assets.

Thank you to the Paris and Belgium teams for their coordination and commitment on the ground.

Maintenance work at Assac!

In September, the SGRE teams carried out repair work on the spoilers installed on several turbine blades at the Assac wind farm.

But what exactly are these small components attached to the blades, and what do they do?

Spoilers are aerodynamic devices designed to help control airflow around the blade. By locally influencing the airflow, they contribute to optimising the blade’s aerodynamic behaviour and maintaining the turbine’s performance.

Repairing these components therefore helps ensure the continued proper operation of the equipment and contributes to optimising the wind farm’s renewable energy production.

Carried out in accordance with the site’s safety requirements, this type of intervention requires precision and expertise, allowing the teams to work directly on the blades under safe and suitable conditions.

A targeted maintenance operation that contributes to the long-term performance and reliability of our wind assets.

Thank you to the SGRE teams and our CGNEE colleagues involved on site for their professionalism, commitment and teamwork throughout the intervention!

Looking back at one of our September interventions!

The Skywork teams carried out work at the La Source de la Sensée wind farm to install Vortex Generators on the turbine blades, with the intervention coordinated by our CGNEE Technical Support team.

Working directly on the blades requires both precision and careful attention to safety. Using a suspended platform, the technicians were able to access the work areas and carry out the installation safely and accurately.

Vortex Generators help improve the aerodynamic performance of the blades, contributing to the wind farm’s renewable energy production.

This intervention is part of our ongoing efforts to enhance the performance of our wind farms and maximise the value of our assets.

A big thank you to the Skywork teams, our CGNEE colleagues and everyone involved on site for their professionalism, commitment and contribution to the successful completion of the work!
