When preventive maintenance is not done regularly on machinery, it can lead to catastrophic component failure, which, in turn, can have a disastrous effect on a country’s power supply.

In 2008, more than 90% of South Africa’s electricity was produced from coal, with nuclear energy making up most of the balance. Growing energy demand and concerns over the environmental impact of coal-fired power generation has led to the diversification of South Africa’s energy portfolio through the incorporation of renewable energy technologies such as solar and wind power.

The generation of most types of energy uses machinery with moving components, such as wind turbines, and gas engines, all of which function optimally with a good condition monitoring programme in place.

WearCheck is THE one stop shop for condition monitoring and reliability solutions!
