Wind power is a viable alternative in supplying the world's energy demands in a sustainable way. Eaton has been a leading supplier in this field, working with both large and small turbine OEMs, wind farm operators, and end users to support the production, operation, and maintenance of wind turbines.
Eaton's hydraulic components, systems, fluid conveyance products, and technical services have been proven to provide reliable performance in wind power applications such as pitch control, braking, lubrication systems, hydraulic power units, and other critical functions within a wind turbine. Operating in extreme environmental conditions for both land and off-shore based systems, Eaton wind power solutions products and systems have demonstrated performance and reliability in helping make this form or energy production even more acceptable and viable.
With the growing world-wide demand for wind energy, Eaton's global reach, breadth of product, and engineering, and training capabilities can provide you the support and results expected whether your needs are local, regional, or global. With our network of distributors and regional service centers, local support and availability of parts and service is another critical reason to choose Eaton as your wind power solutions provider.
Eaton's range of components, solutions, and power management experience is why Eaton is powering businesses worldwide.

Electrical Solutions
A wind farm requires a complex collection of equipment that must work together effectively to generate electricity and transmit it to the utility grid. Because wind farms are often located in remote areas, monitoring and maintaining equipment can be complicated.
Eaton has the wind power solutions you need to meet those challenges. Our products and services can help your wind farm operate more reliably, cost effectively and safely.
Simplify inventory Many wind farm developers operate facilities inside and outside the U.S. That can mean working with American National Standards Institute (ANSI) standards for some equipment and International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) standards for other equipment. Eaton's globally certified components meet both ANSI and IEC standards, allowing customers to lower inventory levels with one global design scheme based on a single part number.
Keep controls operating Brownouts or blackouts may stop a wind turbine, but the turbine's controls need to keep operating. Eaton Uninterruptible Power Supply (UPS) solutions keep electricity flowing through turbine controls even when the turbine is not moving.
More capacity, same space Space is always at a premium in crowded turbine collector substations. Eaton's Metal-Enclosed Front Accessible switchgear saves space, delivering more capacity in the same square footage. And its space-optimized design simplifies retrofit installations, reducing project cost.
Solutions customized for you Off-the-shelf equipment may not precisely match a wind farm's power needs, making it more costly or inefficient to install and use. Eaton's satellites and service centers can customize equipment such as breakers, enclosed breakers, safety switches and low and medium voltage switchgear to your exact specifications, often saving installation cost or making maintenance easier.
Cost-effective assembly solutions Installing, configuring and testing power equipment one piece at a time can be a complicated, time-consuming process. Eaton offers totally solutions such as our Integrated Power Assembly that is shipped in one enclosure, configured and pretested for quick installation and commissioning.
Skilled field service Wind farms are typically located in remote areas, where they often operate without on-site staff. When turbines stop, electricity— and revenue—stop flowing, too. Eaton's Electrical Services and Systems engineers throughout the U.S. provide support in the field for components made by both Eaton and other electrical manufacturers.
