GS-Service: Wind Energy Application
Manage and schedule tasks
During operation, status messages are generated via the central control system, which may result in a troubleshooting task, for example. These tasks must be given high priority in daily planning. Already scheduled recurring inspections and defect remediation orders are also subject to scheduling. Several hundred tasks can quickly accumulate in a wind farm. It is the responsibility of the site manager or dispatcher to decide which repairs and maintenance work are to be carried out specifically on the following day and in the coming days. In action management, they must take all necessary parameters into account.
A controlled and clear overview of available technicians and teams, available spare parts, and transport resources enables effective deployment planning. Due to the large number of turbines, the site manager must also keep track of the spatial distribution of employees to ensure that travel times are as short as possible and the sequence of deployments is carried out in the most economical order.

GreenGate Software – Additional Core Functions
RDS-PP structure library
In wind farm management, the RDS-PP structure has become established for identifying turbine structure and components. The Reference Designation System for Power Plants (RDS-PP for short) is the further development of the Power Plant Identification System (KKS) with extensions for new technologies in electricity and heat generation.
Employee certificate verification
In the area of HSE (Health and Safety Environment), consistent monitoring of personal training and certificates is required. You can immediately see which employee needs to renew important courses. The software system provides timely reminders of relevant deadlines.
PPE – Personal Protective Equipment
The legally mandated regular safety inspections of all personal equipment ensure a high safety standard. Each inspection is documented electronically and automatically rescheduled according to validity period.
Electrical testing of portable equipment according to DGUV
The testing of portable electrical devices (small equipment testing) according to DGUV Regulation 3 in accordance with accident prevention regulations applies to all items that serve, as a whole or in individual parts, to apply electrical energy. Each test is documented in the system and automatically rescheduled according to validity period.
Capacity calculation for planned deployments
The availability of employees depending on their individual qualifications and the volume of planned work orders enables capacity calculation to determine resource utilization.
Deployment planning as daily or weekly planning
The scheduling of personnel and the distribution of teams is carried out via a partially automated planning board, in which many relevant pieces of information can be provided.
Route optimization for deployment planning
In onshore deployment planning, automatic optimization of the travel route takes place. Deployment locations can thus be approached in a more efficient sequence. Travel times are directly taken into account in deployment planning.
Creation of customs lists and deployment documents
For offshore deployments, depending on the location of the wind farm, various documents must usually be generated automatically immediately before departure. These serve as guidance for daily planning, for example for the captain, but also as official documents, e.g., for customs or other authorities.
Work preparation and inventory management
The warehouse manager receives a picking list before deployment and assembles the required materials and spare parts for each team. A barcode-controlled warehouse app supports them in this process.
Management of external service providers
A dedicated web portal enables communication with external service providers. Work orders can be created, retrieved, and processed there. Before an order reaches scheduling, it goes through various approval processes.
Troubleshooting through messages from SCADA systems
Unplanned orders typically result from error tickets in the condition monitoring system. Work orders can be triggered automatically and displayed to the site manager for planning.
People tracking
Particularly for emergency coordination, the current deployment locations of employees in offshore operations are documented in real time with system support and visualized on an overview map. Changes can be captured immediately.
PTW – Permit to Work
To coordinate a wide variety of work requests and deployments, compliance with restrictions and parallel planning is required. The systemically configurable approval processes support planning measures and thus facilitate the complex inspections and work preparations in advance.
