In dieser Folge spricht Michael Tegtmeier mit Nino Göhmann von HDI Global über die Entwicklung des Risikomanagements in der Windenergiebranche. Sie erörtern, wie sich traditionelle Versicherungsmodelle verändert haben, da Windkraftanlagen größer und komplexer geworden sind, was neue Herausforderungen für Betreiber und Versicherer gleichermaßen schafft.Erfahre, wie die Einschränkungen moderner Full-Service-Verträge Lücken in der Risikoabdeckung geschaffen haben und wie die strategische Kombination von KI-Überwachung mit spezialisierter Versicherung eine leistungsstarke Lösung für Windparkbetreiber bietet. Nino teilt wertvolle Erkenntnisse aus jahrzehntelanger Branchenerfahrung und erklärt, warum die Zusammenarbeit zwischen Betreibern, Herstellern und Versicherern für nachhaltiges Wachstum im Bereich der erneuerbaren Energien unerlässlich ist.Lerne, wie dieser innovative Ansatz nicht nur die Betriebskosten senkt, sondern auch Transparenz über die gesamte Wertschöpfungskette schafft, und so Vorhersehbarkeit bei der Wartung ermöglicht und gleichzeitig Ressourcen für das Wesentliche freisetzt: die Beschleunigung der Energiewende.

In this second episode of the Turbit Podcast, CEO Michael Tegtmeier welcomes Andrea Bilbao, Head of Customer Success, to discuss how technical expertise and human connection drive success in wind energy operations.Andrea shares her journey from industrial engineering to renewable energy, highlighting how her passion for sustainability and problem-solving shapes Turbit's customer-first approach. The conversation explores the evolution of customer relationships in a traditionally manual industry undergoing digital transformation.The discussion tackles real challenges faced by wind farm operators, including workforce limitations, increasing portfolio sizes, and the critical shift from reactive to proactive maintenance. Learn how customer success bridges technical expertise with relationship building to transform industry collaboration.Key topics:Breaking down communication barriers between operators, OEMs, and service providersThe balance of technical knowledge and emotional intelligence in customer successHow AI is changing customer interactions and creating new efficienciesBuilding trust and collaboration in an industry with historically conflicting interests

In this inaugural episode of the Turbit Podcast, CEO Michael Tegtmeier sits down with Dr. Richard Kunert, Head of Data Science, to explore how artificial intelligence is reshaping wind energy operations. Dr. Kunert shares insights from his journey from neuroscience to predictive maintenance for wind turbines, explaining Turbit's data-driven approach to monitoring that creates "digital twins" of each turbine to detect anomalies before they become costly failures. The conversation delves into how AI addresses the modern challenges of wind farm operations—larger fleets, more complex assets, and skilled labor shortages—by intelligently prioritizing alerts and helping operators focus their attention where it matters most. Listen as they discuss practical applications of AI in wind energy, from anomaly detection to root cause prediction, and explore bigger questions about how AI is changing work patterns, creating new business models, and moving the industry toward a future of zero-risk operations. Key topics: How predictive maintenance uses AI to detect issues before they lead to downtimeThe evolution from simple threshold-based monitoring to intelligent relevance prediction Combining various data streams to create comprehensive insights about turbine health The future of human-AI collaboration in renewable energy management
