PowerVeritas Ltd WIND · SCADA · UK & EUROPE

Independent wind farm engineering and analytics.

SCADA analytics, technical due diligence, and engineering judgement for wind farm owners, operators and investors. Independent of OEMs and O&M contractors.



02In practice

Conclusions you can audit.

Every recommendation is anchored to data the client can interrogate. Numbers can be challenged and traced back to the underlying SCADA by the client, their lender, board or O&M contractor. Diagnostic plots and output data are provided alongside the conclusion, not separately.


03About

Wind engineering consultancy for problems that outgrow a spreadsheet.

Large enterprise platforms offer automation at scale. Major consultancies offer breadth. PowerVeritas occupies the space between, providing deep, rigorous analysis of a specific site or portfolio, interpreted by a Chartered Engineer and delivered in a form that stands up to scrutiny, without the overhead of either.

P/01

Independent of OEM and O&M.

PowerVeritas has no commercial interest in the outcome of the analysis, only in its accuracy. Findings are usable in contract, warranty and lender conversations.

P/02

Engineering, not alerts.

Automated pipelines handle the data processing; a Chartered Engineer interprets the results. Clients receive judgement and context, not a dashboard of notifications.

P/03

Defensible & conservative.

Findings are traceable from input data to conclusion, and suitable for board papers, lender reporting and contractual disputes. The aim is to identify where energy and value are being lost, and to quantify the opportunity accurately.

The market gap

Why independent assurance matters.

Most wind farm performance data comes from the OEM / O&M contractor. Those parties operate the assets and often have limited financial incentive to flag their own underperformance. PowerVeritas provides independent third-party analysis of SCADA data, giving owners a defensible view of how their assets are actually performing.

Independent review matters across the asset lifecycle: monthly performance monitoring, acquisition, refinancing, contract renewal, warranty claim, end of warranty, life extension decisions, and periods when production has underperformed budget.

Robert Sills CEng MIMechE

Robert is a Chartered Mechanical Engineer with an MEng in Aeronautical and Mechanical Engineering from the University of Cambridge.

He has spent over ten years in renewable energy, most recently as Mechanical Technical Authority and asset integrity and condition monitoring lead at the UK’s largest wind operator. Previous roles include rotating equipment technical authority at a global energy major.

As a director of a small operational wind turbine business, Robert brings an owner’s perspective alongside the technical expertise, with the same concerns about yield, availability and lifecycle cost that clients face directly. PowerVeritas advises wind farm owners because its founder is one.

04FAQ

Common questions.

Why use an independent consultant rather than relying on OEM and O&M reporting?

Most wind farm performance data comes from the OEM, the O&M contractor, or both. These parties are often the same entity. They operate the assets and typically have limited financial incentive to flag underperformance, since doing so exposes them to warranty claims, availability penalties, and contract risks. Independent third-party analysis of SCADA data gives owners and investors a defensible view of how assets are actually performing, calculated from raw data rather than contractor reports. This matters most at moments of commercial consequence such as acquisitions, refinancing, contract renewal, warranty disputes, and end-of-warranty assessments.

What is the typical procurement and engagement process?

Most engagements begin with a free call to discuss the site, the commercial question, and the data available. A written proposal follows, setting out scope, deliverables, timeline and fixed fee. Engagement starts on signed Master Services Agreement and project Scope of Work. For repeat clients, smaller pieces of work can be scoped under existing MSA terms. Where required, framework agreements and procurement processes can be accommodated. Short timeframes can often be accommodated where required.

How is data shared with PowerVeritas?

SCADA data is typically shared as CSV, Parquet, or similar tabular exports from the client's existing data platform such as Greenbyte, Power Factors, Bazefield, or OEM portals. Secure cloud storage and shared SharePoint or similar platforms are the most common delivery methods. For larger or ongoing data feeds, scheduled exports to S3 or equivalent cloud storage, API access, or direct database read-access can be configured. Standard signal sets cover 10-minute SCADA at turbine level, with site-level metered output where available. Data format and delivery method are agreed during proposal stage.

How is client confidentiality protected?

Confidentiality obligations apply at every stage. Before any contract is signed, if required, a Non-Disclosure Agreement can be used to cover any data or information shared during scoping. Once engaged, the Master Services Agreement includes mutual confidentiality obligations that survive termination, covering all client data, deliverables, and findings. Client data and SCADA records remain the client's property and are processed on UK-based infrastructure with encryption and access controls in line with UK GDPR. Specific sites and locations are never disclosed in marketing or external communications.
