Maintaining and operating wind farms can be dangerous work and the ability to stay in touch, as technicians climb up and down inside the 80-metre steel towers, is critical.
With wireless communications being a challenge, especially in steel structures, and the need to enhance the safety of its work teams, Canadian Hydro, acquired by Transalta in 2009, deployed MOTOTRBO digital radios at its Wolfe Island wind farm.
The benefits for the team were immediate - including communication inside and outside the structure, enhanced safety, rugged and durable radios, and longer battery life.
