Choose the right perspective
Match the person's type of wind business to yours, since a turbine manufacturer, an offshore wind services group and a wind farm asset manager run very different systems. Check whether their CIO role is current and whether it covered the whole company or one division before relying on their view.
Questions to take into the conversation
- 01Which systems mattered most for running turbines and wind farms in the field, and how did you connect them with your enterprise systems?
- 02How do you protect the operational technology at wind sites from cyber threats while still pulling useful data from it?
- 03What would you do differently if you were setting up IT for a wind energy business again today?
