End-to-end supply chain management for critical wind turbine components

Supply chain management

We manage the planning, storage and movement of parts to keep turbines turning. From inventory strategy to global logistics, our supply chain solutions are built around uptime, visibility and control

Despite sustained growth and technological advancement, the wind industry remains relatively young. Many first-generation turbines are only now approaching the latter stages of their operational life. As fleets have matured, service models have evolved significantly to reflect changing customer expectations and operational priorities.

The rise of self-perform strategies signals a clear shift in risk appetite, with owners and operators taking greater responsibility for turbine maintenance and performance. This transition is particularly evident in turbines entering the second half of their service life, where cost control, uptime and parts accessibility become increasingly critical.

As a supply chain specialist, Renewable Parts supports customers navigating this shift through proven expertise in parts supply and inventory strategy, helping ensure components are available when and where they are needed.

Inventory strategy development

  • Optimised stockholding based on fleet profile and failure trends

  • Critical spares identification

  • Safety stock modelling

Demand forecasting & analytics

  • Data-driven consumption modelling

  • Failure rate analysis

  • Lifecycle planning aligned to service schedules

Global sourcing

  • OEM and approved supplier network

  • Alternative sourcing routes

  • Obsolescence mitigation

Procurement management

  • Supplier negotiation and contract management

  • Cost benchmarking

  • Framework agreements

Warehouse and inventory management

  • Controlled storage environments

Logistics and distribution

  • Onshore and offshore delivery coordination

  • Consolidated freight solutions

  • Just-in-time site deliveries

Supporting the self-perform model

As more owners and operators move away from OEM long-term service agreements, supply chain control becomes business-critical.

We enable self-perform strategies by building tailored inventory programmes that:

  • Improve parts availability

  • Reduce lead times

  • Lower emergency procurement costs

  • Protect generation revenue

Technology and systems

Our operational teams use specialist inventory management software to monitor, track and forecast material demand across fleets.

This enables:

  • Real-time stock visibility

  • Automated replenishment triggers

  • Consumption reporting

  • Predictive demand planning
