Installation of MW class turbines is often hindered by the excessive costs of large cranes. For small farms and difficult locations, mobilization/demobilization efforts can exceed 10% of project costs. Further, in remote locations, the scarcity of crawler cranes for major component repair exposes projects to unacceptable economic risk. The Hi-Jack™ is rapidly deployable anywhere in the world with minimal effort at a cost that is easy on the budget. In fact, the Hi-Jack™ System is so cost effective, that project owners are keeping Hi-Jack™ Systems on wind farm sites as a convenient maintenance risk mitigator.
• Small and remote wind farms are now financially feasible due to an 80% reduction in crane mobilization costs for erection and maintenance.
• Difficult sites requiring multiple crane teardowns will no longer reduce project margin points. The Hi-Jack™ System is transported between turbines on standard flatbed trucks, and due to its small size typically is moved in an assembled state.
• Taller towers are no longer tied to crane capacity. The Hi-Jack™ System erects 100m tower and turbine systems as easily as 80m. Combined with the economics of the Space Frame tower, 100m height revenue gains are now financially justified.
• Turbine heavy-maintenance lifting expenses are reduced over 50% per incident. It no longer makes sense to idle turbines and lose revenue while waiting for multiple failures to justify high crane deployment costs.
Although nimble, light, and shipped with ease, the Hi-Jack™ System is no lightweight. Capable of lifting the heaviest 1 to 2.5 MW turbines, the Hi-Jack™ is ready today. With double redundant safety systems, the Hi-Jack™ provides the convenience and safety you’ve long awaited.
