2025 Fall O&M Users Group Meeting
September 23 - September 26
Members of the ESIG O&M Users Group are invited to attend the 2025 Fall O&M Users Group Meeting at the Wigwam Resort in Scottsdale, AZ.
The meeting will feature a plenary session, manufacturer-specific roundtables and tech talks. The roundtables provide the opportunity for frank and open discussion among users who share their information, knowledge and experience. As a reminder, participation in the roundtables is limited to employees of ESIG member organizations that own, operate, or maintain wind generation or solar equipment.
We’ve made a few changes to the schedule!
- Splitting Solar into TWO tracks!
- Adding a working session for the revision of the Operating Practices Guidebook
- We will be alternating our Legacy Roundtables (Vestas Legacy, Siemens Legacy, and Gamesa) between the Spring and Fall meetings. If you have any Legacy questions, make sure to provide them to the Roundtable Chair prior to the conference.
- There will be no Blades Roundtable this Fall 2025, because we will be hosting the Blade Damage Workshop on Monday.
2025 Fall Plenary
Current Views on Bolted Joints
Fasten your seatbelts for a riveting conversation on bolted joints during the Fall 2025 O&M Plenary session! From the foundation to the blades, wind turbines contain thousands of bolts. We will hear from speakers about typical failure modes, best practices associated with installation, maintenance, and inspection of critical bolted joints, as well as lessons learned based on their respective experiences. Be sure to join us for an informative discussion on what really holds wind turbines together.
