Learn more about the Gearbox, Drivetrain & Oil User Group

GBX-4

 

20 energy companies have connected their experts on gearbox, drivetrain and oil in the Gearbox, Drivetrain & Oil User group. Improve production and bring down costs - connect your experts on gearbox, drivetrain and oil. 

   

What is being done in the Gearbox, Drivetrain and Oil User Group?

 
This user group connects the experts on gearbox, drivetrain and oil employed by wind turbine owners. O2O WIND facilitates for these experts to have an efficient communication within the group. We then supply access to our collaboration platform to bring good structure to this collaboration and access to our messaging app to make this collaboration faster. 
 
Apart from connecting the experts we have built a set-up to share experiences on various gearbox types, gearbox oils, in and off line filters, particle counters, oil sampling (where and how), CMS systems, analysis labs etc.
 
The gearbox, drivetrain and oil is a whole system that are creating a lot of downtime and productions losses for the owners. The ambition with the group is to come in better control of gearbox, drivetrain and oil issues in wind farm operations.

To give our sharing a good structure


forum better

Since 2014 O2O WIND has developed their digital platform tailor-made for wind farm operations. Within this platform we have created a sub forum for the Gearbox, Drivetrain and Oil User Group. Within this sub forum we will have a good over view of challenges developed within the group. We can develop our own Wikis and keep our common files.

 

 

To make our collaboration faster

 

Apps

To make our collaboration faster we have developed our own messaging app, found in Appstore and Google play. With this app you are able to reach out to your gearbox, drivetrain and oil peers in an instant - world wide. On the app we have a specific channel made only for you and your gearbox, drivetrain and oil peers in the wind industry. In this way you will not be disturbed and you will know that for every notification there will be a gearbox, drivetrain and oil expert on the other end having a new gearbox, drivetrain and oil issue our solution.

Pricing, terms and conditions

 
O2O WIND facilitates for wind asset owners to share data, experiences, and insights within wind farm operations - full stop. That's our only product. All our cashflows come solely from wind turbine owners. We have no sponsors and we have no consultants, software, spare parts or whatever that we will try to sell to you further down the road. We only sell collaboration. For all other product and services, we suggest that you ask your peers at O2O WIND for good references.

 

We supply our owner-2-owner collaboration with a legal framework, developed by our funding partners and efficient formats and collaboration tools. Furthermore, we do our best to also support this collaboration mainly by moderating and being very active behind the scenes.

Speak directly to the persons behind O2O WIND International

Speak directly with the people who founded O2O WND and have been following every owner-2-owner conversation ever since. In this meeting you will also have a live viewing of all on-going owner-2-owner collaborations at O2O WIND.

With consent from our members we are aloud to view the actual collaboration, live, under the following three conditions:

  1. O2O WIND staff will guide during the live viewing but the guest will not be allowed access to the platform on their own.
  2. The guest will not tell third party what was viewed on the platform. The most simple version of an NDA is applied.
  3. It will only be shown to wind turbine owners who also fulfill our members condition. In short, this means only wind turbine owners who does not view other wind turbine owners as potential customers - within wind farm operations. 

Initially in our meeting we will ensure that these conditions are met and their after we logon to the actual platform to view directly what our members view.
