We aim to partner at every opportunity and never stop looking for ways to add more value to our customers. Our approach is to challenge the traditional way thinking and push for smarter more efficient ways to deliver our service, whilst always working with the highest level of safety standards on every project.

BOOM is proud to be one of the leaders across this booming sector and to be recognised as a partner for safety performance with a dedicated management team.

BOOM has been involved providing maintenance services and building wind farms since 2003, building wind farms for global OEM’s such as Vestas, Suzlon, Acciona, GE and Senvion. We continue to provide key partnerships to one of Australia’s fastest growing sectors.

Our expert teams are fully equipped with all the advanced skills necessary to support the construction and maintenance for Australia’s largest renewable energy projects.

Our expert maintenance and construction teams work seamlessly to create, implement and execute projects to the highest standards and to ensure connectivity and key milestones are achieved. We’re experts in our field when it comes to working at great heights and installing a tower, nacelle, hub or blades.

Depending on your specific project requirements, our in-house engineering team will help optimise your project with preplanning on Balance of Plant (BOP) site component logistics and installation optimisation.

Wind Farm Maintenance

Maintaining wind turbines in a maturing energy market is crucial to the reliability and operability for any wind farm.
Boom Renewables is focused on ensuring the OEM can meet its obligations on delivering energy yields to asset owners through continuous improvements, performance and uptime of assets.

With more than 15 years of experience Boom Renewables understand the critical importance of preventative and reactive maintenance, having performed major change outs on all OEM platforms. We have successfully collaborated with leading OEM’s to construct and install (C&I packages) over 750Mw of projects in Australia. We hold relevant electrical licensing providing project assurance and peace of mind for our wind farm customers.

Equipped with an array of tensioning and torqueing equipment and specialist electrical tooling we deliver a number of services across all platforms. These include major component change-outs, blade repairs, tower and blade cleaning, inspections, replacements, repair and performance of routine servicing to OEM specifications.

Reactive Maintenance

All assets including wind turbines can deteriorate over time. Having a robust maintenance plan in place will reduce the likelihood of catastrophic failure. Unforeseen asset failures can pose a risk and potentially lead to operational downtimes. Having said that if an unknown fault arises we can assess the condition of the turbine and determine the most cost-effective solution that will see the turbine back up and running as soon as physically possible.

Recognising operability and uptime is critical to the operational success and the longevity of maintaining and operating a wind farm, Boom Renewables can mobilise quickly and efficiently. Our national footprint helps deliver reduced mobilisation time and cost.

Reactive Maintenance services Include;

  • Gearbox removal and replacement
  • Generator removal and replacement
  • Main bearing removal and replacement
  • Pitch Bearing (Blade) removal and replacement
  • Rotor removal and replacement
  • Logistics support, managing the transport and handling of repair and replacement of components

Our project teams, crane crews, technicians and equipment are available 24/7 to service any critical emergency on any wind farm in Australia

Preventative Maintenance

Preventative maintenance helps wind farm asset owners and OEM’s extend the asset health and lifespan and will reduce O&M costs. Maintenance that is regularly performed on a wind turbine will lessen the likelihood of it failing. It can be performed while the wind farm is still operating.

The goal of carrying out preventative maintenance is always to minimise failures by detecting and fixing issues before they lead to costly downtime.

Boom Renewables preventive maintenance strategies and plans consist of three major components:

  • Systematic approach
  • Performed routinely
  • Focused on reducing or minimising failures

Preventative Maintenance services Include;

  • Routine and periodic servicing as per OEM specifications
  • Tower, nacelle and blade bolt tensioning/torqueing
  • Generator alignment
  • Repair and replacement of wind instrument systems
  • Vibration analysis
  • Damage assessments
  • Hoist/ elevator inspections, servicing, repair and certification

Maintaining energy assets is crucial for the distribution and supply of electricity to the homes we live in right across Australia.

BOOM has more than a decade of experience in this challenging sector and has successfully assisted with the delivery of major transmission line and energy distribution projects. We understand the critical importance of our work and we are focused on minimising any downtime and optimising operational efficiencies.

BOOM has gained operational experience in working with key players across Australia in energy transmission and distribution. We have the capabilities and equipment to service customers in metro regional and remote areas.

We provide a model that supports maintenance needs, and major and minor capital works programs such as installations of substations, lattice towers, poles and wires in both low and high voltage works.

Our assets and crews are required to work in de-energised environments. We hold the relevant licences to assist with both low voltage and high voltage projects.

Industrial Maintenance

BOOM’s Industrial Maintenance service delivery model sees us covering and maintaining the longevity of industrial plant and equipment including: heavy lift engineering services, to assisting with the pre-commissioning, through to maintenance and major shutdown services. We have been a trusted partner in the space with the likes of Alcoa, Australian Paper, BP, Caltex and Exxon Mobile for over 15 years.

BOOM holds long-term maintenance contracts with manufacturers and service providers in this sector.
