Continued trust in RES’ O&M excellence in Brazil   

We’re delivering fast local response, predictive maintenance, minor and large corrective maintenance and regulatory ready operations to support long-term performance across remote assets in Brazil and Latin America.

The challenge 

Delivering high standard operations and maintenance (O&M) services across vast and diverse geographies, such as those found in Latin America, requires navigating significant operational and logistical complexities. One long-term customer manages a large multi-OEM wind portfolio spanning several regions of Brazil, presenting a unique set of challenges:

• Operational complexity and scale across a significant number of turbines in multiple subregions
• Remote locations requiring rapid, reliable local response
• Region specific operational risks including limited access routes, harsh weather conditions and transmission constraints
• Evolving regulatory requirements from IBAMA and ANEEL
• The need for data transparency, predictive insights and long-term asset reliability
• A demand for flexible, independent O&M partners who can adapt to operational realities

Following an initial contracted O&M period, our customer sought assurance that RES could continue to meet high performance expectations, uphold industry leading safety standards and optimise their growing portfolio. 

The solution 

Rising to the challenge, RES’ O&M team in Brazil delivered an agile, purpose-built service model combining deep local expertise and utilising our global capabilities. This holistic approach aligned impactfully to the customers operational needs.

1. Local delivery strength and fast flexible response 

With more than 14 years of experience in the Brazilian market, our locally embedded field teams ensure fast mobilisation, integrated spare parts and operational continuity delivering day-to-day service excellence and long-term stability. 

2. Multi-OEM post warranty familiarity 

RES’ independent O&M model provides cross-OEM proficiency across Brazil’s major turbine manufacturers. This allowed us to design tailored preventive maintenance strategies that optimise asset performance beyond OEM warranty periods. 

3. Predictive and data-driven maintenance 

Applying advanced cutting-edge innovative digital solutions, including SCADA analytics, predictive monitoring monitoring and fault diagnostics we provided our customer with full visibility and early insight into emerging issues. This predictive approach improves long-term yield, increases uptime and extends asset life.  

4. Strong compliance understanding and governance support 

Our structured, centralised reporting, strong safety culture and regulatory alignment ensured that our customer consistently met Brazil’s evolving IBAMA, local Environment Agencies and ANEEL requirements, reducing compliance burden and operational risk. 

5. Cross-team collaboration 

As a global independent service provider, RES leverages the strength of our in-house commercial, engineering and supply chain teams. This integrated model ensured a unified approach to service delivery and consistently high levels of customer satisfaction. 

While digital performance tools were not deployed as part of this specific scope, RES brings a proven digital solutions service with advanced performance analytics capability that can be rapidly mobilised as project requirements evolve. From autonomous drone inspection and root cause analysis to innovative blade repair solutions, our O&M teams are fully equipped to integrate data-driven optimisation, predictive insights and impactful service scopes, ready to be deployed across Latin America when and where customers choose to implement them. 

The impact 

This combination of technical expertise, agile responsiveness and operational transparency led our customer to renew the O&M agreement across their full portfolio, reinforcing trust in RES as the preferred long-term O&M partner in Latin America.

The new agreement reaffirms RES’ commitment to delivering independent O&M excellence tailored to Brazil’s distinct operational environment. With strong regional presence, advanced digital capabilities and global experience managing 45 GW of renewable assets, RES continues to empower asset owners seeking performance, transparency and long-term value.
