YAW BACKUP SYSTEM

An Emergency Power Supply to Protect Wind Turbines during Extreme Weather Conditions

A Sustainable Solution

Ingeteam's Yaw Backup System is a sustainable solution which ensures an instant response in extreme weather conditions, to reduce the mechanical stresses of the wind turbine through fast feeding of the Yaw System, thus, keeping the components safe and avoiding financial losses. Furthermore, the Yaw Backup System also provides an emergency electric power source to support essential loads such as control, communications, and thermal, among other systems.

The Yaw Backup System's technology is based on an electrical storage system which is capable of reacting immediately in the hardest conditions of voltage drops, as well as adapting its operation to demanded energy.

Our solution is a reliable, efficient and sustainable system comprised of a Power Conversion System (PCS) and a unique battery storage system (ESS) based on our 50 years of experience developing and supplying power conversion solutions for wind and other renewable energies and industries.

This innovative technology will provide the power required to control the Yaw Systems, to protect the structural integrity of the wind turbine during a power failure, contributing to the challenges of the wind sector in terms of security, sustainability, and efficiency.
