The Cost of Unplanned Downtime
Every year, thousands of massive wind turbines, generating 1,400,000 GWh of clean energy worldwide, are exposed to strong winds and harsh environmental conditions.
In 2023 alone, more than 3,800 recorded safety events occurred, including total nacelle damage accidents and near-damage events.
Total net worth of wind parks worldwide is estimated to be 1,000 billion USD.
Unplanned repairs still account for the largest portion of a wind farm operator's O&M budget. The unplanned repair market is forecast to grow 6.7% y/y (2018-2028).
Holistic Approach in Wind Turbine Protection
Integrated Solutions for Complete Lifecycle Management
Chordata implements a comprehensive wind turbine maintenance solution by integrating systems for monitoring the condition of blades as well as components inside and outside the nacelle.
This integration enhances the understanding of turbine health, enables data-driven decisions that resolve both internal and external turbine problems, ensuring optimal performance and reliability.
The maintenance of wind turbines is safe and has economical sense when it is scheduled for windless days. When the turbine is not working it's impossible to detect audible signals that could be indicating upcoming hardware malfunctions.

Three Innovative Solutions
for Wind Energy Management
Acoustic Probe
- Ultrasonic frequency range (2 Hz to 20 kHz)
- AI-powered anomaly detection
- Real-time historical data
- Predictive maintenance enabled
Monitoring Inside the Nacelle
The solution is based on analytics of sound intensity of the wind turbine components. All signals are digitally recorded with directional indication for better sound identification inside the nacelle.
Advanced ML Operations
In case of deviations detected in the intensity of the identified acoustic pattern, the MLOps process triggers steps leading to model re-training and better Predictive Maintenance decisions.
Wide Acoustic Frequency Range
Monitors wide acoustic frequency range (2 Hz - 25 kHz) with high precision, enabling detection of both audible and ultrasonic anomalies.
AI-Powered Analysis
Uses AI to identify acoustic anomalies indicating turbine faults, providing early warning of potential mechanical failures.
Intuitive Dashboard
Provides real-time and historical data through an intuitive dashboard, making it easy for operators to monitor turbine health and make informed decisions.
