Houghton conveys big advancement with Enercon repair
Houghton International is staking its claim as a "renewables pioneer", the company said, citing a recent project that it says made it "the first company ever to fully project manage, repair, life-extend and recommission an Enercon direct drive wind turbine," according to an email sent to Electrical Apparatus November 16.
The UK-based outfit considers this "the industry's first end-to-end repair and life-extension service for wind turbine generators, main shafts, ancillary motors and blades."
The offering comes on the back of the company's recent announcement on expanding its Byker-based facility, that will reduce lead times by roughly 30% with improved handling and process efficiency.
