Revolutionary monitoring solution delivers increased energy production improvements per wind turbine through advanced power and pitch curve analysis

Exus Renewables North America, a leading independent developer and operator of utility-scale renewable energy and energy storage projects, today announced the launch of ExusIQ+, a comprehensive suite of asset optimization products designed to maximize renewable energy performance. The suite debuts with Pitch Power+, an innovative monitoring tool that has consistently delivered Annual Energy Production (AEP) gains of 1.5% to 15% per individual wind turbine across managed fleets.

ExusIQ+ represents a new generation of asset management solutions from Exus Renewables North America's Asset Management team, combining cutting-edge technology with deep industry expertise to increase energy efficiency, identify real-time issues, and optimize asset performance across utility-scale renewable energy projects.

Wind turbines regularly experience various factors that lead to significant annual energy production losses. Environmental degradation like blade erosion diminishes efficiency by 1.5-2% annually, and operational issues such as blade misalignment and incorrect parameters contribute to losses averaging around 5%. Identifying and addressing these challenges quickly is essential for maintaining economic viability of wind projects, yet traditional monitoring solutions often fail to pinpoint the exact causes efficiently.

"Our performance engineers are consistently achieving measurable energy production improvements with this new technology," said Jim Spencer, President and CEO of Exus Renewables North America. "The Pitch Power+ tool represents a significant advancement in performance monitoring, allowing us to pinpoint issues with unprecedented speed and accuracy, ultimately delivering substantial AEP gains that directly impact our clients' bottom line."
"The ExusIQ+ suite reflects our commitment to leveraging data analytics and engineering expertise to unlock hidden value in renewable energy assets," said Dhaval Bhalodia, Head of Operations at Exus Renewables North America. "Pitch Power+ demonstrates how targeted analysis can deliver meaningful improvements—up to 15% per turbine—by addressing the specific operational challenges that traditional monitoring often misses."

The proprietary Pitch Power+ tool addresses a critical industry challenge by focusing on the three primary causes of power curve issues: sensor malfunctions, incorrect parameters, and pitch-related problems such as blade misalignments or collective blade offsets. By analyzing the relationship between power curves and pitch behavior, Exus' performance engineers can efficiently identify problems without the need for time-consuming data collection or extensive investigations.

Key benefits of the Pitch Power+ tool include:
• Significant AEP improvements ranging from 1.5% to 15% per individual wind turbine
• Rapid problem identification through issue-specific signature recognition
• Streamlined diagnostic process requiring less engineering time
• Faster resolution of performance issues
• Integration with existing asset management workflows

The launch of ExusIQ+ and its flagship Pitch Power+ tool reinforces Exus Renewables North America's commitment to innovation and operational excellence in the renewable energy sector, particularly as the company continues to expand its footprint in the U.S. market. Additional products within the ExusIQ+ suite are planned for release throughout 2025.
