All in one controlling system for upgrading wind turbines
Dan Groza is first mover in being a succesful business renovating and servicing wind turbines in the south of Italy. Since the beginning of 2015 Dan and his employees have retrofitted more than 140 older wind turbines with Orbital´s TMC3 controlling system.
A trustworthy partner with-in the wind turbine industry
Dan Groza saw Orbital´s controlling system in a retrofitted Bonus wind turbine in Romania. The simple build of the system made him contact Orbital and other possible suppliers. His search had two important criterias:
- Reliable controlling systems.
- A flexible supplier.
Dan Groza explains,
”In Orbital I have found a strategically strong partner for a long term partnership. My ambition is to build a good business with-in the Italian wind turbine industry, and to succeed in doing so I need reliable suppliers to being able to deliver optimal solutions to my customers in order for them to improve their profit from their wind turbines. The chemistry between Orbital and I is good and I feel that Orbital wishes to support my future business growth”, says Dan Groza.
Dan Groza extends operation time for wind turbines with various manufacturers
Extending operation of older wind turbines is a field of expertise for Orbital. The TMC3 controlling system is ideal for small and medium sized wind turbines. Orbital also designs controlling systems for pitch controlled wind turbines. The range of wind turbine components which Orbital offers to extend operation is in continuos growth. For Dan Groza it is important with a supplier who has a curious Research & Development department. It makes it easier to offer solutions which meet specific customer demands.
All in one controlling system for wind turbines
All in one solutions makes it easy to build controlling cabinets and to complete the installation of the wind turbine controller.The TMC3 is a complete solution with less cables. This helps during the installation process. The support team at Orbital is always available to give remote support and it also helps connecting the wind turbine controller to OrbiSCADA.

Orbital always finds a way
Dan Groza explains, ”It is important to have a supplier where the employees have a professional and customer fixed mind-set. My firm was founded 3 years ago so it is imperative for me with an all round supplier on the controlling parts. It is important that my firm is being looked at as professional and genuine. In order to make that happen it is to me an advantage to have Orbital as my supplier”
OrbiSCADA is the right surveillance tool for wind turbines
Getting new customers demands a valid product which stands out. OrbiSCADA is a tool convincing the customers they are in control as they can always monitor the wind turbine directly from their smartphones. Dan Groza and his team of technicians also use OrbiSCADA for surveillance and controlling in connection with maintenance. If the wind turbine shows ERROR, the technicians are very quick to restart the wind turbine from home and thereby reduce costs for the customer.
