Full Circle Wind Services has secured a long-term maintenance contract with High Winds Community Energy Society.
Under the agreement, Full Circle will maintain the High Winds and Mean Moor wind farms in Ulverston, Cumbria, northern England.
The contract covers operations and maintenance, including major component repairs and replacements, for five Enercon E-70, 2.3MW turbines at the two adjacent sites in Ulverston, with a combined capacity of 11.5MW.
Full Circle’s local service team will manage the sites.
Both wind farms are located near the coast, where turbines face additional challenges of higher levels of humidity and salinity.
High Winds Community Energy Society selected Full Circle following a competitive tender process, recognising the company’s expertise in providing tailored maintenance solutions, including dehumidification retrofits, generator servicing, and sealing work to ensure optimal turbine operating conditions.
“We are proud to partner with High Winds Community Energy Society on the maintenance of these sites.
“Supporting community-owned initiatives is always rewarding, and this contract highlights our ability to deliver customized solutions for turbines in coastal environments. We look forward to ensuring the long-term performance and success of these wind farms,” said Billy Stevenson, CEO, Full Circle
Alex Hassan, Chair, High Winds Community Energy Society, added: “As a co-operative, High Winds Community Energy Society values partnerships that align with our commitment to sustainability and maximising community benefit.
“Full Circle’s expertise in the Enercon technology, combined with their flexible and professional approach, makes them the ideal partner to ensure the continued performance of our wind farms.
