PROJECT UPDATE: Successful transport of 30 complete GE2.82MW wind turbines / / OK

Jun 9, 2020 | Case Studies

Logisticus recently wrapped a short-term delivery project for our customer in Oklahoma. The scope involved the transport of wind components from a nearby lay-down location to their final destination (a wind project site).

Highlights
  • We moved 30 complete GE2.82MW turbines. (Watch a video of installation of one of these turbines here.)
  • Our team deployed a complete turbine set of tractors/trailers equipped with our GPS – a highlight of our proprietary system, Logisticus Technology Solutions – for tracking.

  • Custom geofences were added providing an alert upon 1. exit at origin and 2. entry at project site – giving further visibility to the site team.
  • Our team and the site crews persevered through challenging road conditions and worked weekends to offset wind + weather days to get all turbine components delivered as quickly as possible.

By the time most operators decide to repower, the case is already clear. The turbines are aging, the technology has moved on, and the site still holds the two things that are hardest to secure in wind energy: an approved permit and a live grid connection. Repowering...
