Is an O&M package cost-effective?

Our plans are bespoke to each client and for each asset. By steering clear from elevated fixed-price contracts, we can give you the best price for exactly what you need. We base our fees on a cost per MW which allows us to offer accurate pricing adjusted to the size of the project.

  • Quick fault rectification

    With our in-house 24/7 performance monitoring team, we are able to analyse multiple data points and identify underperforming assets on any site across our portfolio. Once an issue impacting generation is detected, our experienced team will decide on the best course of action to determine if the component requires servicing or replacement. Conducting this process in a timely manner means that our clients have a reduced amount of downtime.

  • Contracts to suit you

    We have the ability to customise our contracts to suit the client’s needs which means you’ll never be paying for something you don’t require. Whether you need a full asset management contract or a simple CCTV monitoring service, we will be able to accommodate.
