Power Climber Wind installed IBEX Climb-assist Systems at three wind farms in France

By Michelle Froese | June 16, 2015

Power Climber has installed 45 IBEX climb assist systems at wind farms in France.

Power Climber installed 45 IBEX climb assist systems at three wind farms.

Power Climber Wind, a division of SafeWorks, has installed 45 IBEX climb-assist systems in France for EOLE-RES, one of the top developers of renewable energy production in the Mediterranean region and the Middle east.

The IBEX system puts complete control of the climbing experience in the hands of the wind-turbine technician, delivering personalized performance, increased safety, and better productivity. The device uses a patented, closed feedback-loop and EasyClimb Controller, responding to the climber’s movement and behavior.

EOLE-RES selected the IBEX 1000 for installation on turbines at three of the wind farms it manages on behalf of The Renewables Infrastructure Group – Haut Languedoc, Haut Cabardès, and Roussas Claves.

“Our French customers see the benefits and value in the intelligent IBEX climb assist,” said Edwin Holtkamp, Director of Sales – Power Climber International. “Our market-leading climb assist provided a complete retrofit program for these EOLE-RES managed wind farms, further enhancing the health and safety conditions for the climbers.”
